Icky Thump

Ah, icky thump, who'da thunk?

Sittin' drunk on a wagon to Mexico

Ah well, what a chump

Well, my head got a bump

When I hit it on the radio

Redhead señorita looking dead

Came and said, "Need a bed?" in Español

I said, "Gimme a drink of 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 usin' 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
