Toothless People

(album: Polka Party! - 1986)

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 posses
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 your 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 ahh
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…
