[Verse 1 - Ian MacKaye]
She rinsed out her cup
When the next shift showed up
Her replacement asked her "what's been going on?"
She said, "not very much"
But she'd seen a lot of action
Oh the terrible things she's seen
On her screen
[Chorus - Ian MacKaye, Amy Farina, Joe Lally]
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
But it's not clean
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
But it's not clean
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
But it's not clean
[Verse 2 - Ian MacKaye]
When she stepped outside
Raised her eyes to the sky
The fatal stare is somewhere up there
Looking for someone to die
Soap and water will never get rid of that spot

[Chorus - Ian MacKaye, Amy Farina, Joe Lally]
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
But it's not clean
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
But it's not clean
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
But it's not clean
[Bridge - Ian MacKaye]
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
It's a clean kill
[Outro - Ian MacKaye, Amy Farina, Joe Lally]
It's not enough
Soap and water
Never enough
Soap and water
It's not enough
Soap and water
Never enough
Soap and water
