Mariella Tab por Kate Nash

(slowly)
           C                  Am
I'm heavy handed, to say the least
          G               
my mother thinks I'll be an awful clutcher
                             F                 
'cause I spill things from stiring them too quickly.
             C
I'm far too loud, it's like
    Am
as soon as I've got an opinion 
                
it just has to come out.
             G
I laugh at stupid things
                  F
just 'cause they tickle me. 

   (double tempo, same chords the whole song)

And sometimes I wish,
sometimes I wish I was like Mariella
she got some Prit STick and she 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 she threw away the colour,
because wearing black looks mysterious
but it didn't impress her mother.
She wanted to dress her baby in patters 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
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 she 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 they all looked to her
and they thought she was quite strange.
And the boy they're not really into girls at that age
and the teachers they thought
Mariella was just going through a phase.

But Mariella just smiled
and she skipped down the road 
because she knew all the secrets in her world.
Yeah, she always got the crossword puzzle right everyday
and she could do the alphabet backwards
without making any mistakes.

Mariella, Mariella,
my pretty, pretty girl.
Mariella, Mariella,
happy in your own little world,
happy in your own little world.

And she said:

"Yeah, I'm never ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever,
yeah, I'm never ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever,
yeah I'm never ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, 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, ever, ever, ever,
yeah, I'm never ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, 
ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever
gonna unglue my lips from being together."
