[Upbeat music plays]

DESCRIPTION: In an animation, a man with tufts of blue hair, a yellow-green nose, and a red shirt smiles. He holds a piece of toast with green mould on it.

BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: When it's yucky, when it's gross, like this mouldy piece of toast. When it's terrible, no longer good. The word that I'd use most would be rotten.

[Text Reads] Rotten.

BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: The word is rotten.

DESCRIPTION: The blue-haired man holds a milk carton and sniffs it.

BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: I left the milk out all day.

[Sniff]

BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: It stinks. It's rotten.

[Text Reads] Rotten.

BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: Do not drink this, ew.

DESCRIPTION: The blue-haired man stands beside a broken fence, and two fence posts fall.

BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: This fence fell down fast. I knew it wouldn't last. The wood was rotten. It was old and crumbling.

DESCRIPTION: A banana with brown splotches appears, and the blue-haired man holds it between his fingertips.

BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: This banana that I found on the ground turned brown. It's rotten.

[Text Reads] Rotten.

BLUE-HAIRED MAN: It's mushy, soggy, yucky.

BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: Sometimes I say it's rotten when I feel like saying ick.

DESCRIPTION: Outside on a rainy day, the man holds an umbrella. Later, in his bedroom, he lies in bed, under the covers.
BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: Like when the weather's bad or when I'm feeling sick, ugh.

DESCRIPTION: On a road, the blue-haired man sits in a yellow car with deflated tires.

BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: Who let the air out of my tires? That's a rotten trick. Now I'm not getting where I'm going anytime quick.

DESCRIPTION: In a field, the man stands in a mud puddle.

BLUE-HAIRED MAN SINGS: I stepped in the muck. I've got rotten luck. That's rotten, ugh.
