Sucker Thumb

Lyrics

[INTRO]
Little habits die hard, it's true
But some are hard to break through
A comfort that's hard to resist
But the dentist says, "It's time to quit"

[VERSE 1]
Esme, sweet Esme, with a habit so strong
Sucking your thumb, all day long
The dentist says no more, it's time to face
The music, and the metal, and the painful place

[CHORUS]
No more sucker thumb, it's time to be free
You can do it, Esme, just you and me
No more metal and glue, no more pain and strife
You can stop, and live a better life

[VERSE 2]
Braces and wires, a scary sight
But it's what you'll need, if you don't stop tonight
The dentist says, "It's your choice, it's your call"
But Esme, I know, you can stand tall

[CHORUS]
No more sucker thumb, it's time to be free
You can do it, Esme, just you and me
No more metal and glue, no more pain and strife
You can stop, and live a better life

[BRIDGE]
It's hard to stop, but you can try
Find a new comfort, before you say goodbye
To the sucker thumb, that's holding you tight
You'll be proud of yourself, shining bright

[HOOK]
Stop sucking your thumb, it's time to be bold
You can do it, Esme, you're not too old

[CHORUS]
No more sucker thumb, it's time to be free
You can do it, Esme, just you and me
No more metal and glue, no more pain and strife
You can stop, and live a better life

[OUTRO]
Esme, you can do it, I believe in you
You'll be smiling bright, with a heart that's true
No more sucker thumb, you'll be set free
And a healthy smile, will be the key.
