Toothless People Lyrics
They only show you their gums when they smile
Ain't got a tooth in their heads now, how vile
Only can eat things like pudding and applesauce
They never have to buy toothpicks or dental floss
Hey, stand up
Toothless people
The breath is lethal
Wanna tell ya
Hey, (come on), stand up, (get on your feet)
Toothless people
Old and feeble
What I say
No more of those pearly whites will they possess
Their oral hygiene is frightful, a mess
Lots of 'em suffering from trench mouth and gum disease
At least they don't have to worry 'bout cavities
Hey, stand up, (take out your teeth)
Toothless people
Old and feeble
Oh yes
You can brush 'em, you can floss 'em
They're something you just can't ignore
If you lose 'em you're in trouble
'Cause the tooth fairy won't come no more
Ain't got a tooth in their heads now, how vile
Only can eat things like pudding and applesauce
They never have to buy toothpicks or dental floss
Hey, stand up
Toothless people
The breath is lethal
Wanna tell ya
Hey, (come on), stand up, (get on your feet)
Toothless people
Old and feeble
What I say
No more of those pearly whites will they possess
Their oral hygiene is frightful, a mess
Lots of 'em suffering from trench mouth and gum disease
At least they don't have to worry 'bout cavities
Hey, stand up, (take out your teeth)
Toothless people
Old and feeble
Oh yes
You can brush 'em, you can floss 'em
They're something you just can't ignore
If you lose 'em you're in trouble
'Cause the tooth fairy won't come no more
You need something to show your dentist
The next time he makes you say "ah"
You don't wanna have to wind up
Eating all of your food through a straw
(Like toothless people)
(Toothless people)
You better brush your teeth now
Hey
Toothless toothless toothless toothless people...
The next time he makes you say "ah"
You don't wanna have to wind up
Eating all of your food through a straw
(Like toothless people)
(Toothless people)
You better brush your teeth now
Hey
Toothless toothless toothless toothless people...
About
This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation
A parody of Mick Jagger’s “Ruthless People.” After Al heard this was going to be the theme song for the film of the same name, he assumed it was going to be a big hit and got permission to do the parody. However, the song was not a hit, but Al still released the song as he felt it would be insulting not to.
