[Chorus]
Clean sweep
Clean sweep
Clean sweep
Throwing paint at a new leaf clover turning over

Clean sweep
Starting over
Clean sweep
Throwing paint at a new leaf clover turning over

Clean sweep
Starting over
Clean sweep
Throwing paint at a new leaf clover turning over

[Chorus]
Clean sweep
Throwing paint at the walls
Clean sweep
Starting over
Clean sweep
Throwing paint at a new leaf clover turning over
