| | Icky Thump Lyrics Artist(Band):The White Stripes
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. redhead senorita looking dead came and 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 now it's reckon I was ready to go! and I swear besides the head she had one white eye, one blank stare lookin' up lyin' 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.

Review about Icky Thump you got it all wrong. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/10/09 the reason people are prejudiced to immigrants is because we cannot fit new people in our country. and although this is correct, that they should be allowed, prejudice is pointed to immigrants who shouldn't be here(ie illegal aliens) because they come over illegally and steal our jobs, create racial tension(just by being here, which sucks for them, but we just can't have more right now), bring diseases, and piss people off in general. period | Reviewer: reena | 5/13/09 one of the most genius bands ever. period. regardless of whether or not the tone deaf morons out there "like" the band, they're fantastic. make your own out of the lyrics, get them stuck in your head, and smile. it's all good my friend. You're arguing too | Reviewer: ben | 2/9/09 Or rather, you are complaining about the comments made on these song lyrics. You want other people to "shut the fuck up", and yet you think it's fine that you're typing down your thoughts as well. The best thing you can do is ignore the comments made on this site if they piss you off that much. I really don't mind them (I might not agree with all of them), I'm just trying to be informative to future viewers who are thinking of posting uncivil and perhaps hurtful comments to those who most likely won't end up returning to this page. just to say... | Reviewer: Joe | 12/26/08 absolutely every person in america, is an immigrant! even the native americans came from india, thousands of yers ago. But they were the first inhabitants of america. Every white person in the USA is a descendant of an invader. So, absolutely anyone who is prejudice about immigrants in the US, is a hypocrite! kharma | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/29/08 I have one thing to say, Kharma. How can you sit there and say no one else has a right to be here? The only reason white america exists is because Indians showed European ancestors' the ropes on how to survive on this American continent. Clearly, the writer of the song is pointing out how hypocritical you ignorant ones can be. How can you think that after all the killing or "Manifest Destiny" as one calls it, after ripping one from their home and territory, and after broken promises, how can you think that it will not came back yo you? Maybe not violently like the way of the Europeans, but clearly you cannot stop illegal immigration -it is natural Law your white ancestors did it and so now it's all coming back to you. Politics killed it for me! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/10/08 I agree, the song sounds great. It even used to be in my Favs playlist. But every time I hear it, the political part grates me. I'm a part of "white America", does he mean me, too? 'cause I'm part Cherokee, what does he mean I'm an immigrant, too? I'm one of the people that was FROM here. Also, most people don't have a problem with immigrants, they(we) have a problem with the undocumented one! They're breaking the law! With that said, congress needs to change the laws/policies to make legal entry and citizenship easier. Making somebody who wants to be an american wait 2+ years to become one for being born 1 inch south of an imaginary line is insane... Agh, just heard it again. Damn you, white stripes, damn you! wtf | Reviewer: dogface | 6/28/08 Ok first if you read the lyrics to the whole song you can clearly see it makes a short one verse segment on the subject of immigration who cares. the rest of the song deals with going to mexico grabbing a street walker hooking up and getting robbed has nothing to do with the US at all really and the so called verse that makes all the hype is from the point of view of the people of mexico telling the white drunken john to go home. love the song | Reviewer: tessie | 3/28/08 i like this song "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." the song is right....this world was created for all of us...duhhhhhhhh God dam get a life u fucktards | Reviewer: GuYwHoLoVeSfOoTbAlL | 3/25/08 GOD DAMN!!! u r all a bunch uv fucking retards!!! y dnt u all go get a life and do sumthing bsidz complaining bout sum song dat by ther way sounds fucking awesome! i swear u all sound lik my grandpa, and hez 85 yearz old!!!!! go get a life u fuktards... Are you actually reading the lyrics?! You should! | Reviewer: L1ZZARD | 3/16/08 People never cease to amaze me, I guess it really is true when they say you can't fix stupid. Shut up you Mexicans, and shut up you White Americans. Everyone shut up for a moment and read the lyrics. "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." He's singing about how hypocritical we Americans are. Where did Americans come from? OTHER COUNTRIES! Chances are at least one (if not many, many more) came to this country illegally back a century or three ago. Don't act holier than thou. Whose country was this first? The Native Americans lived here before anyone else. The same thing happened to the native peoples of today's Mexico. So take your hypocritical views and shove it. You can't be a pimp and a prostitute at the same time. Now cheer up, go outside and be a productive member of society no matter where you came from.
