FINGER NAILS by ANONYMOUS

First Line: "CUT THEM ON MONDAY, YOU CUT THEM FOR HEALTH"
Last Line: FOR ALL THE NEXT WEEK YOU'LL BE RULED BY THE DEVIL
Cut them on Monday, you cut them for health;
Cut them on Tuesday, you cut them for wealth;
Cut them on Wednesday, you cut them for news;
Cut them on Thursday, a new pair of shoes;
Cut them on Friday, you cut them for sorrow;
Cut them on Saturday, see your true-love tomorrow;
Cut them on Sunday, you cut them for evil,
For all the next week you'll be ruled by the devil.
