The Lyrics

well, its a source of strife...and i...walk so funny
and the doc, i would see...but i...don't have the money
they ache horribly...i've got gnarly bones...in my hammertoes
and they twist and curl...till i wanna ball
and my hammertoes...nearly make me crawl
cause my hammertoes...gonna make me trip
and that don't look so hip

oh, hammertoes...they may kill me, baby
these hammertoes...make me moan
well, its quite a pair...of odd feet, i own
and when i walk, i knock my...hammertoes
oh, hammertoes...i stumble daily
these hammertoes...make me groan
if i had a knife...i'd sit and slice...these hammertoes

now, it hurts like hell...i'm in...agony
i'm in dreadful need...of some...therapy
well, the way they're splayed...it...looks absurd
oh well, my feet look like a bird's
when i walk around...they just bounce and spring
really gets my goat...when these...doggies sting
they look so weird...that they...can't be shown
damn these hammertoes

oh, hammertoes...they may kill me, baby
these hammertoes...make me moan
well, its quite a pair...of odd feet, i own
and when i walk, i knock my...hammertoes
oh, hammertoes...i stumble daily
these hammertoes...make me groan
if i had a knife...i'd sit and slice...these hammertoes

though, i try to smile...its a...dismal world
i limp around...with my...toes unfurled
normal feet..is a...thing i'd love
instead of creepy stubs
a doctor must be found...who can...make them square
because some point here...and some point there
just to try to walk...is a...tricky art
my toes just fly apart

oh, hammertoes...they may kill me, baby
these hammertoes...make me moan
well, its quite a pair...of odd feet, i own
and when i walk, i knock my...hammertoes
oh, hammertoes...i stumble daily
these hammertoes...make me groan
if i had a knife...i'd sit and slice...these hammertoes
