This song is about a special kind of pain we've all shared.

Lyrics:
Might've slipped upon a bit of snow
Tripped and stubbed my little toe
The way it throbs, you wouldn't know how much
I'd made an error trimming back
Wasn't careful, had a lack
Of patience leading to a crack that's tender to the touch
Hangnail
It wasn't major, wasn't deep
The doctor's payment wasn't steep
But how to fix it nothing leaps to mind
They say all you can do is wait
And leave it at the feet of fate
And watch with a more careful gait next time
Hangnail
And some are plagued with migranes
A broken limb or three
But that pain's only theirs; mine's unique to me
Hangnail
I'm told in time the pain will pass
Like liquid from a shattered glass
Until that point it's quite a hassle now
I could have put a bandage on
To help until the throbbing's gone
That row now seems a little long to plow
And someday it'll heal, as good as it was new
But this is how I feel, 'till then there's sympathy I'm due
Hangnail
