Big thumbs.

lyrics

Thumbs up or thumbs down, I still do it like you don’t.
Yeah, shit could get better, but I’m betting that it won’t.
And a gambling man is more Peter Pan than Pete and Pete;
I’m all mix of all 3, I get faded 'til I fall asleep
then rinse and repeat 'til I’m sedated. Why is life so complicated?
I just wanna stare at glowing screens ‘til the real world looks pixelated
like that thumbnail, that jpeg, that road head, that safe sex.
Early to rise, early to bed so this early bird gets to shit on your head.

You ever seen thumbs like this?
You ever get dumb like this?
You kids wanna talk that shit,
you can all get done like this, real quick.
You ever seen thumbs this big?
You ever get dumb like this?
You kids wanna talk that shit,
you can all get done like this, real quick.

I’m on some “1-2-3-4, I declare a thumb war”,
y’all on some “Ew, Gerko, what you dressing like a scrub for?”.
Call it how you see it, I’ve always denigrated the humdrum,
catch me hitchhiking the highway to hell with these giant clubbed thumbs.
I’m too smart to be a dumb-dumb but always acted like I was one
to pull the wool over the eyes of party people with numb gums.
Kinda wish I was one, it’s crazy what people do for fun,
but my truth is stranger than your fiction, go redux your gimmick son.

You ever seen thumbs this big?
You ever get dumb like this?
You kids wanna talk that shit
you can all get done like this, real quick.
You ever seen thumbs this big?
You ever get dumb like this?
You kids wanna talk that shit
you can all get done like this, real quick.

Wanna thumb wrestle? I thought not. You better mind your P’s and Q’s,
cause I do this better than you do. You want some rye? Of course you do.
Who are you? It doesn’t matter, dude, nobody cares.
You ain’t wet behind the ears, you’re steady pissing in your ‘wears.
That’s not beef, it's pork chops. You getting props? Of course not.
I played Return to Zork, yeah, I’m a dork, but this dork rocks spots.
You know not what you speak of, better get your thumbs to googlin’,
I’m the type to get the crowd boomin’ and leave your ego neutered, kid.

You ever seen thumbs this big?
You ever get dumb like this?
You kids wanna talk that shit
you can all get done like this, real quick.
You ever seen thumbs this big?
You ever get dumb like this?
You kids wanna talk that shit
you can all get done like this, real quick.
