This, That, And the Other Thing

Now I really meant to get back to you

But I’m not the one who pulls the strings

And all would not fall through the cracks, it’s true

If not for this, that and the other thing

Now what I really meant is that I get torn

When the doorbell or the landline rings

I just feel our lives could be so much more

If it weren’t for this, that and the other thing

This, that, the other thing

You know what I’m on about

Oh, and another thing

It’s time that’s running out

If not for this, that and the other thing

This, that, the other thing

You know what I’m talkin’ 'bout

Oh, and another thing

It’s life that’s walking out

While your mind was clocking out

A new to-do list seems to be piling up

With the backlog that it always brings

All the loose ends, they would be tying up

If not for this, that and the other thing

This, that, the other thing

This, that, the other thing

This, that, the other thing

This, that, the other thing
