Who is the girl no bigger than a bumble bee? Who is the angel with a funny name? We don't know where she's from or how she came to be? But happy was the day she came
Thumbelina She's a tiny little squirt Thumbelina Tiny angel in a skirt Thumbelina She's mending and baking, pretending, she's making things up Thumbelina
Who would believe the wonder of the world I see Each little minute brings a new surprise There's only one peculiar thing that bothers me Seems I'm the only one my size
Thumbelina Thank the Lord and save our meals Thumbelina Maybe if you had high heels Thumbelina If you stay here forever we know that we'll never become quite glum
Thumbelina
She's always in the thick Thumbelina But I get out in the lick Thumbelina Sometimes its sickness, but this time it's bigness Oh a plum's so big, and the thing's so big And they call it a twig but a twig's so big
It's a big big world for Thumbelina, Thumbelina, Thumbelina Thumbelina That's me!
