Nonsense – Sabrina Carpenter


Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh (Oh-oh, la-la)

Da-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Yeah

Think I only want one number in my phone

I might change your contact to “Don’t Leave Me Alone”

You said you like my eyes and you like to make ’em roll

Treat me like a queen, now you got me feelin’ thrown, oh

But I can’t help myself when you get close to me

Baby, my tongue goes numb, sounds like “bleh-blah-blee”

I don’t want no one else (No, no), baby, I’m in too deep

Here’s a lil’ song I wrote (A song I wrote), it’s about you and me (Me)

I’ll be honest

Lookin’ at you got me thinkin’ nonsense

Cartwheels in my stomach when you walk in

And when you got your arms around me

Oh, it feels so good

I had to jump the octave

I think I got an ex, but I forgot him

And I can’t find my chill, I must’ve lost it

I don’t even know, I’m talkin’ nonsense

I’m talkin’, I’m talkin’ (Ah-ah-ah-ah)

I’m talkin’ all around the clock

I’m talkin’ hope nobody knocks

I’m talkin’ opposite of soft

I’m talkin’ wild, wild thoughts

You gotta keep up with me

I got some young energy

I caught the L-O-V-E

How do you do this to me?

But I can’t help myself when you get close to me

Baby, my tongue goes numb, sounds like “bleh-blah-bleh-blee”

And I don’t want no one else (No, no), baby, I’m in too deep (Too deep)

Here’s a lil’ song I wrote (A song I wrote), it’s about you and me

I’ll be honest (Honest)

Lookin’ at you got me thinkin’ nonsense (Nonsense)

Cartwheels in my stomach when you walk in (When you walk in)

When you got your arms around me

Oh, it feels so good

I had to hit the octave

I think I got an ex, but I forgot him

And I can’t find my chill, I must’ve lost it

I don’t even know, I’m talkin’ nonsense (Oh-oh)

I’m talkin’, I’m talkin’, I’m talkin’

I’m talkin’, I’m talkin’ (Na-na-na), I’m talkin’

(Blah-blah, blah-blah)

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Ah-ah)

I don’t even know anymore

(Oh)

This song catchier than chickenpox is

I bet your house is where my other sock is

Woke up this morning, thought I’d write a pop hit, ha-ha

How quickly can you take your clothes off? Pop quiz

That one’s not gonna make it

Most of these aren’t gonna make—

Playful Romance and Unfiltered Joy

Sabrina Carpenter’s “Nonsense” captures the intoxicating rush of new love with infectious energy and witty flair. The lyrics reveal a playful, carefree infatuation, as Sabrina admits losing her composure and spouting ‘nonsense’ in the presence of someone special. With lines that paint vivid images of butterflies, lost chill, and humorous asides, the song feels like a joyous internal monologue set to an upbeat pop melody. Sabrina’s vocal performance—bouncing between sweet, confessional verses and cheeky, rapid-fire choruses—mirrors the excitement and spontaneity of falling head over heels.

Carefree Vibes and Modern Pop Sensibility

The song’s tongue-in-cheek humor and self-aware lyrics make it stand out in the pop landscape. Sabrina’s playful wordplay about exes, losing her chill, and even breaking into a higher octave all contribute to a vibe that’s both relatable and delightfully over-the-top. “Nonsense” is a testament to embracing silliness and vulnerability when swept away by new feelings.
