    Story Behind the Song
    Written in a time when lyrics didn't mean much to me, Fingernail Transplant's original version never required more than two fingers on the fretboard at once. It won me the High School Talent Quest, but it was not to be officially recorded for another two years.

    Lyrics
    A hundred books I've never read
    Did call a meeting to discuss the state of my head
    And they conducted it by phone. Yeah.
    The motion was unanimous
    They all decided that the things at which I did fuss
    Out of my head were to be thrown. Yeah.

    Fingernail transplant, etc.

    The doctors strapped my right hand down
    And their fantastical, magical surgical gowns
    Were made of all the finest sands. Yeah.

    Fingernail transplant, etc.

    "Are they done?"
    "Well, you tell me!"

    They took the nail from my pinky
    And then they grafted my pinky-nail onto my knee
    Now I'm the first to have knee-nails. Yeah.

    Fingernail Transplant, etc.
