Thumbsucker Lyrics

The song Thumbsucker is performed by Shel Silverstein in the album named Freakin' at the Freakers Ball in the year 1999 .

Yeah yeah now this song is a warning yes folks a warnin' against the danger
A very very economy a social fibre mortal turpitude haha national security
And friends the danger is not it is not the long hairs
And it is not the warmongers all the squares all the truckusers all the fuss
Friends the danger the real danger is thumbs*ckers
Yes you heard me my friends I think thumbs*cker
And every time every time you make a peace sign with your fingers
And every time you push a door bell
And every time you're on highway stick your thumb
There's always there in the shadows some dirty sneaky thumbs*cker
Who will leap out upon you grab your wrist
And start to s*ck your thumb drainin' all your natural thumbjuices
And leavin' you hopeless heartless a shakin' quiverin' crawlin' slaverin'
Thumbs*ckin' addict for the rest of your unusual life

That's why I ain't gonna let no thumbs*cker s*ck my thumb
It'll drive you crazy and leave you deaf and dumb
It'll make you crawl and climb the wall and leave you without no thumb at all
I ain't gonna let no thumbs*cker s*ck my thumb

Met her on a corner in Deluth and that's truth
She was tryin' to fix her shoe in a telephone booth her name was Ruth
She said she was just waiting for a bus
But I hid my thumb cause I knew just what she was
Uhh I ain't gonna let no...
[ piano - guitar ]
I'll tell you what them thumbs*ckers like to do
They s*ck your thumb till it's wrinkled like a prune
They'll say you've got the sweetest thumb of all they say
But then they s*ck the thumb of the guy livin' down the hall
That's why I ain't gonna let no...
s*ck my thumb s*ck my thumb s*ck my thumb s*ck my thumb
