Icky Thump
Icky thump
Who'da thunk?
Sittin' drunk
On a wagon to Mexico
Ahh well, what a chump
Well my head
Got a bump
When I hit it on the radio
Red-head señorita
Lookin' dead
Came to said,
"Need a bed" en español
I said
"Gimme a drink a water,
I'm gonna 'sing around the collar'
And I don't need a microphone."
Icky thump,
With a lump in my throat
Grabbed my coat
And I was freaking
I was ready to go!
And I swear
Besides the hair
She had one white eye
One blank stare
Looking up,
Lying there
On the stand
Near her hand
Was a candy cane
Black rum, sugar cane
Dry ice and something strange
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
White Americans, what?
Nothing better to do?
Why don't you kick yourself out?
You're an immigrant too.
Who's using who?
What should we do?
Well you can't be a pimp
And a prostitute too
Icky thump, handcuffed to a bunk
Robbed blind
Looked around
And there was nobody else
Left alone
I hit myself with a stone
Went home
And learned how to clean up after myself
