 One day, a hand and a foot had a quarrel.

手足のけんか

“You always try to sit on the lap. You are quite annoying,” the foot said.

 So the hand said,

“What are you talking about? Since I am located above you, I’m like your big brother.

手足のけんか

 You can’t do your job without hands.”

手足のけんか

“Nonsense. Without feet, you can’t even go to work,” the foot talked back.

手足のけんか

 Then the hand said,

手足のけんか

“If you say so, I must tell you that food is eaten with hands.

 Feet cannot take food to mouth, can they?”

 Not being able to talk back, the foot said,

手足のけんか

“… You are right about that.

 But remember.

 Next time I’ll step on dog poop and make you wipe it off!”
