Lyrics
Some people make a fuss when a thing goes wrong
Some start to swear and cuss, others sing a song
I don’t do either, that’s all “Taboo”
When a thing goes wrong with me, this is what I do
Chorus:
I lift up my finger and I say
“Tweet tweet, shush shush, now now, come come”
I don’t need to linger when I say
“Tweet tweet, shush shush, now now, come come”
When the baby screams and scatters my dreams
Do I start to sing or hum?
No! I lift up my finger and I say
“Tweet tweet, shush shush, now now, come come”
