Verse 2:
E
Icky Thump
E
With a lump in my throat
E
Grabbed my coat
E
And I was freaking
E                  G A
I was ready to go!

E
And I swear
E
Besides the hair
E
She had one white eye
E
One blank stare
E
Looking up
    G   A
Lying there

E
On the stand
E
Near her hand
E
Was a candy cane
E
Black rum, sugar cane
E                G  A
Dry ice and something strange

E
La la la la la la la
E                 G   A
La la la la la la la


Chorus Repeats:


Verse 3:
E
White Americans, what
E
Nothing better to do
E
Why don't you kick yourself out
E                 E G A
You're an immigrant too
E
Who's using who
E
What should we do?
E
Well, you can't be a pimp
E            E  A  G  E
And a prostitute too


Chorus Repeats:
E
Icky thump
E
Handcuffed to a bunk
E
Robbed blind
E
Looked around
E                   G  A
And there was nobody else

E
Left alone
E
I hit myself with a stone
E
Went home and learned how
E                  A  G  E
To clean up after myself
