Boomtown Rats Under Their Thumb Is Under My Thumb Lyrics

Under Their Thumb Is Under My Thumb Lyrics

Under their thumb

Kicked and beaten like an angry rabid dog

Under their thumb

Squashed and squeezed like a dried-up, rinsed out worm

You can't do a thing

Best lie still 'til you wait your turn

Can't do a thing

Your day will come

You're under their thumb



Under their thumb

And now you feel you're not alone

Under their thumb

And now you feel the pressure zone

You can't do a thing

Revenge is sweet but it's sugar free

Can't do a thing

Your day will come

Now you're under their thumb
