Not On My Clothes

Not on My Clothes is a song sung mainly by Groundskeeper Willie and Lisa (with unnecessary interruption by Homer) in the episode My Fair Laddy. The majority of the song is a parody of "The Rain in Spain," while Homer's part of the song ("I'm getting blue pants...") is a parody of the song "Get Me to the Church on Time," both from the musical My Fair Lady. The music was written by Alf Clausen and the lyrics by Michael Price. It is part of the thirtieth track on the album The Simpsons: Testify.

Lyrics

Lisa:

(sighs) All right, let's just try one more lesson. Repeat after me: "What flows from the nose does not go on the clothes."

Groundskeeper Willie:

"Wot flohs frum me nose..." Dah! Is no use! Ahm not viry cultured! Ah don't even have a last name!

Bart:

Care to concede that bet?

Lisa:

No. Come on, Willie! I believe in you!

Groundskeeper Willie:

What flows from the nose does not go on my clothes.

Lisa:

Say it again!

Groundskeeper Willie:

What flows from the nose

Does not go on my clothes!

Lisa:

I think he's got it!

Oh yes, he's got it!

Groundskeeper Willie:

What flows from the nose

Does not go on my clothes!

Lisa:

Where is that ghastly flow?

Groundskeeper Willie:

The nose! The nose!

Lisa:

And where should it not go?

Homer:

Blue pants! Blue pants!

Lisa:

Dad! Get your own song!

Homer:

Fine.

I'm gettin' blue pants in the morning!

Ding-dong, the zipper's gonna shine!
