Ring Around the Rosy

Scrubb and scrubb and wipe away But you're back the next day Thick and grimy even kind of slimy Foamy and hairy really kind of scary! Oh my aching back, we are under attack Soap scum ring, cut me some slack Nuclear power ships have been created But tell me how the soap scum ring can be annihilated?
