Dirt is unclean matter, especially when in contact with a person's clothes, skin or possessions when they are said to become dirty. Common types of dirt include:
A season of artworks and exhibits on the theme of dirt was sponsored by the Wellcome Trust in 2011. The centrepiece was an exhibition at the Wellcome Collection showing pictures and histories of notable dirt such as the great dust heaps at Euston and King's Cross in the 19th century and the Fresh Kills landfill which was once the world's largest.
Computer keyboards are especially dirty as, on average, they contain 70 times more microbes than a lavatory seat.
When things are dirty they are usually cleaned with solutions like hard surface cleaner and other chemicals; much domestic activity is for this purpose — washing, sweeping and so forth.
Dirt! is the sixth album by the Canadian comedy music group The Arrogant Worms, released in 1999.

What's the worst you'd do
To exploit all the lacerations,
To address all the conversations
You had with yourself, to keep yourself amused?
A bruise is just a bruise
And it looks good on you.
And if you milk the attention
And spread some more lies,
Then they'll side with you, yeah!
Yes this is an argument 'coz I came here to fight.
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Yes this is a confrontation, still you wanna hide.
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Keep reciting your fabrications, make them proud.
'Coz you, you are who you hang with!
DIRT! DIRT! DIRT! DIRT! DIRT! DIRT!
It's the best you can do
To win worthless admiration,
To protect all your inner hatred
You kept to yourself, so you could play it cool.
A fool is just a fool
And they're surrounding you
And as you milk the attention,
Adopt their opinions
So they will like you!
Yes this is an argument 'coz I came here to fight.
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Yes this is a confrontation, still you wanna hide.
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Keep reciting your fabrications, make them proud.
'Coz you, you are who you hang with!
DIRT! DIRT! DIRT! DIRT! DIRT! DIRT!
