Gerbil
Stephen Lynch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If Richard Gere can do it I can too
I'd get undressed I'd start to lube
I stick the gerbil in the end of the tube
Wondering just how he'll feel
Will he like it better than his little wheel
Careful now he's right beside me
Go gerbil go
Burrow harder burrow deeper
Be my little chimney sweeper
One thing I forgot about
How am I supposed to get you out
So now my gerbil's on easy street
It's warm and cozy and there's plenty to eat
The situation is beyond my control
Gotta find a way to get him out of his hole
I try crowbars, I try wires
I almost had him with a pair of pliers
I try cheese but he's not biting
I wish this wasn't so exciting
Go gerbil go
Jesus I am such a sucker
Please get out you furry fu-grr
I think I am getting ill
Suddenly he's very, very still
Now its too late my gerbil died
I guess I have committed gerbicide
Here's some advice it's very clear-cut
If you love your gerbil, don't stick him up your butt
Don't stick him up your butt
Little furry gerbil in your booty hole
Don't stick him up
And ya put him in your ass
And he won't come out
(growling skeet)
Yeah
The lyrics to Stephen Lynch's song Gerbil describe a disturbing and graphic account of the singer’s questionable actions. He bought a gerbil at the petting zoo and claims that if Richard Gere can do it, so can he. He then proceeds to undress and lubricate himself before inserting the gerbil into a tube and ultimately inside his body. Throughout the song, the singer is wondering how the gerbil would feel while also trying to figure out a way to remove the animal. Despite trying different methods, he is unable to remove the gerbil and ultimately kills it. The song ends with the singer advising the listeners not to do what he has done.
The lyrics to Gerbil are clearly satirical and meant to be absurd. However, they also highlight the issue of animal cruelty and the importance of treating animals with respect and care. The disturbing and graphic account of the singer’s action serves as a warning to those who might consider using animals for their own pleasure.

Little furry gerbil in your booty hole

Don't stick him up
Another repetition of the advice not to insert a gerbil into your rectum
And ya put him in your ass
