Kate Nash - Mariella lyrics

I'm heavy handed, to say the least

My mother thinks I'll be an awful clutcher

'Cus I spill things from stiring them too quickly

I'm far too loud

It's like, as soon as I've got an opinion, it just has to come out

I laugh at stupid things just 'cause they tickle me

And sometimes, I wish I was like Mariella

She got some Pritt stick and glued her lips together

So she never had to speak, never had to speak

never had to speak

People used to say she's as quiet as a mouse

She just doesn't make a peep

She marched to her wardrobe and threw away the colour

Because wearing black looks mysterious

But it didn't impress her mother

She wanted to dress her baby in patterns and flowers

But Mariella just crossed her arms and so she cried for hours

Mariella

Mariella

My pretty, baby girl

Unglue your lips from being together

and wear some pink and pearls

You can have your friends 'round and they can stay for tea

Won't you just try to fit in please, do this for me

But Mariella just crossed her arms

and walked up the stairs and she went into her bedroom

and she sat on her bed

And she looked in the mirror and she thought to herself

If I wanna play, I can play with me

If I wanna think, I'll think in my head

At school, Mariella didn't have many friends, yeah

The girls there, they looked at her

And thought she was quite strange

Boys aren't really into girls at that age

And the teachers, they thought Mariella was just

going through a phase

But Mariella just smiled as she skipped down the road

Because she knew all the secrets in her world

Yeah, she always got the crossword puzzle right every day

And she could do the alphabet backwards

Without making any mistakes

Mariella

Mariella

Pretty, pretty girl

Mariella

Mariella

Happy in her own little world

Happy in her own little world

And she says

I'm never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever, yeah

I'm never ever ever ever ever ever ever

Yeah, I'm never ever ever ever ever ever ever

Gonna unglue my lips from being together

She said

I'm never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever, yeah

I'm never ever ever ever ever ever ever, yeah

I'm never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever

Gonna unglue my lips from being together
