New music is coming from Sabrina Carpenter.

After the Grammy winner shared a video teaser on social media Monday, she confirmed Tuesday that she would be releasing a new song, titled "Manchild."

The new song is set to be released Thursday at 8 p.m. ET.

"This one's about you!!" Carpenter wrote in the caption of an Instagram post Tuesday. The post included an image of the singer hitchhiking along what appears to be a desert highway.

A 7-inch vinyl version of the song is available for preorder now. A photo of the vinyl reveals that the song is produced by Jack Antonoff, one of Carpenter's "Short n' Sweet" collaborators.

The flip side of the vinyl bears the phrase "Inside of your head when you've just won an argument with a man."

Ahead of the song reveal, fans noticed billboards popping up that seemingly contained lyrics for the new song.

The billboards, credited to SC Entertainment, feature the words "Hey Men," "Amen" and "I Swear They Choose Me I'm Not Choosing Them."

Another billboard included the word "Manchild," which fans correctly assumed would be the title of the song.

As some fans noted, the "Manchild" rollout bears similarities to the debut of Carpenter's hit song "Espresso" in April 2024, just before she performed at Coachella.

"Manchild" comes nearly a year after Carpenter released her Grammy-nominated album "Short n' Sweet." The album included "Espresso," as well as the songs "Please Please Please" and "Bed Chem."
