[Verse 1]
I like myself again, I finally found a friend (Uh-huh)
His name's Nobody and he loves me (Aw)
I found him on the web, the world wide Internet (What up?)
And on the day we met I felt lovely
I hope you never try to leave me
[Chorus]
'Cause I want you under my thumb
I'm just a girl and I want to have fun
So don't make me hate you, I won't hesitate to
Spit you out like old chewing gum, I love chewing gum
(I love chewing gum)
[Verse 2]
My life feels like a dream, now that he's on my team
I melt like ice cream when he loves me (Ah)
He calls me Poppy Seed and treats me like a queen
He's everything I need, so I tell him
"I know you'll never try to leave me"
[Chorus]
'Cause I've got you under my thumb
I'm just a girl and I want to have fun
So don't make me hate you, I won't hesitate to
Spit you out like old chewing gum, I love chewing gum
[Bridge]
Am I just insecure? Are we being immature?
Who knows for sure? (Who knows for sure?)
At least I got my boy here to tell him that
[Chorus]
I've got you under my thumb (Ah-ha)
I'm just a girl and I want to have fun (Have fun)
So don't make me hate you, I won't hesitate to
Spit you out like old chewing gum, I love chewing gum
I love chewing gum (There's a fire)
So don't make me hate you, I won't hesitate to
Spit you out like old chewing gum, I love chewing gum
