Thumb Suckers Lyrics

the stupid ones the violent ones
they suck their thumbs and point their guns
little boys with little choice
they've got their hands on little toys
their boxes tell them where to aim
shoot anything they say to blame
so we'll just pretend they're not here
maybe they'll all disappear
one day far away
I'll make it
reach out climb out
right through it
the simple minds that don't know why
they're stuck inside the happy lives
give them toys and give them choice
they'll take it all like little boys
and they will follow like a herd
don't cut in line just wait your turn
when we let go and don't care at all
they'll all hide out inside their mall

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
