Icky Thump Lyrics

The White Stripes

Ya-eee! Icky thump, who'd a 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 lookin' dead Came and said, "Need a bed?" en español Said give me a drink of water I'm gonna sing around the collar Well, I don't need a microphone
Icky thump with the lump in my throat Grabbed my coat and I was freaking, I was ready to go Yeah, I swear, beside the hair she had one white eye One blank stare, lookin' up, lyin' there
On a stand near her hand was a candy cane Black rum, sugar cane, dry ice, somethin' strange La la la
White Americans, what, nothin' 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

Tell Us What These Lyrics Mean To You...

i'e, no politicks, just a story of relaxed tourist in a poor country (any would fit). Here we call them "clopheliners". Clopheline in a drink makes you unaware, then aroused, and then knocks you out with a higher dose. I had such experiennce with harder #!@%*# in egypt, in 5*palace deluxe hotel, fu('&)(&%'&. usually barman makes a cocktail or drinking pal passes you a whiskey from a barman...and you are out, giving your money yourself on directive.

some fixes: *Said gimme drink of water.. Yacky thump, what a lump... ...grab my coat *An'I was wrecking, I was ready to go. *Icky frump! handcuffed to a bunk I.e., a tourist, though he was aware, he was drunk, eventually he was owned. And that #!@%*# was complaining of bad gringoes on the top. buy me a water (i.e. pay)... "don't need a microphone" that's harlot's words. Like playing on a fluite. Lick you whole clean, etc. Then he garbbed a condom and rushed forward. the thing he remember, was something fishy abouth drink on the stand.. And he is tied to his bad and that harlot is cursing gringoes while searching his pockets. I.e. you are not home and nobody will help you here.

I had no idea anyone over the age of 12 used the word "icky"

It's a British term, "ecky". Jack just made it U.S. friendly, you wanker. What a disgrace to American McGee you are.
