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 try to
multiply with one another
'Cause that's just the way
of the world
It never ends till 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 everyday to go to
work for someone else
And somebody works for them
and so they think they got it made
But they're all just working
to get paid the very same
And so they keep on
twiddling them thumbs
Skiddly-dee-da-dum
They gonna keep on
twiddling them thumbs
Skiddly-dee-da-dum-dum
And so they keep on
twiddling them thumbs
Skiddly-dee-da-dum
They gonna keep on
twiddling them thumbs
Skiddly-dee-da-dum-dum
Somewhere in the world
you got a robber and a bank
And the bank robbed the people
so the people robbed 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 till the end
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
twiddling them thumbs
Skiddly-dee-da-dum
They gonna keep on
twiddling them thumbs
Skiddly-dee-da-dum-dum
And so they keep on
twiddling them thumbs
Skiddly-dee-da-dum
They gonna keep on
twiddling them thumbs
Skiddly-dee-da-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 twiddling
them thumbs
'Cause that's just the way
of the world
It never ends till 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
twiddling them thumbs
Skiddly-dee-da-dum
They gonna keep on
twiddling them thumbs
Skiddly-dee-da-dum-dum
And so they keep on
