Sabrina Carpenter - Thumbs lyrics

[Sabrina Carpenter - Thumbs lyrics]

Somewhere in the world
There is a father and a mother
And the father is a son, who has a mother
The mother has a daughter
Who gets married to the brother of a mother
And they all just tryna
Multiply with one another

'Cause that's just the way of the world
It never ends 'til the end
Then you start again
That's just the way of the world
That's just the way of the world

Somewhere in the world
They think they're working for themselves
They get up every day to go
To work for someone else
And somebody works for them
And so, they think they've got it made
But they're all just working to
Get paid the very same

And so, they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
Skiddly dee dat dum (Dum, dum, dum, dum)
They gonna keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
Skiddly dee dat dum dum (Dum, dum, dum, dum)
And so, they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
Skiddly dee dat dum (Skiddly dee dat dum)
They gonna keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
Skiddly dee dat dum dum (Dum, dum, dum)

Somewhere in the world
You got a robber and a bank
And the bank robbed the people
So the people rob the bank
And the police came to get him
But they let him get away
'Cause they're all just working to
Get paid the very same

'Cause that's just the way of the world
It never ends 'til the end
And then you start again
That's just the way of the world
That's just the way of the world

And so, they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
Skiddly dee dat dum (Skiddly dee dat dum)
They gonna keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
Skiddly dee dat dum dum (Dum, dum, dum, dum)
And so, they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
Skiddly dee dat dum (Skiddly dee dat dum)
They gonna keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
Skiddly dee dat dum dum (Dum, dum, dum)

Don't believe everything that you hear
Let it go through your left and right ear
Don't just march to the beat of that drum
Don't be one of them people
Just twiddlin' them thumbs

'Cause that's just the way of the world
(Way of the world)
It never ends 'til the end
And then you start again (Start again)
That's just the way of the world
That's just the way of the world

And so, they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
(Keep on)
Skiddly dee dat dum (Skiddly dee dat dum)
They gonna keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
Skiddly dee dat dum dum
(Woo, woo, dum, dum, dum)
And so, they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
(Keep on, keep on)
Skiddly dee dat dum (Skiddly dee dat dum)
They gonna keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
(Laa) skiddly dee dat dum dum
(Skiddly dee dat dat dat-de dat dum dum)

And so, they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
(Keep on, keep on)
Skiddly dee dat dum (Dum, dum, dum, dum)
They keep on, they keep on
They gonna keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
Skiddly dee dat dum dum
'Cause that's just the way of the world
