_ _ _ I'm heavy-handed, _ to _ _ _ _ _ _ say the least _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ My mother thinks I'll be an awful _ clutcher
_ Cos I spill things from stone and 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 cos they tickle _ me _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ And _ [Am] _ _ [G] _ _
_ [F] sometimes [C] I wish
_ [Am] _
_ _ [G] _ _ [F] _ _ [C] Sometimes I [Am] wish I was [G] like _ [F] Mariella
[C] She got some [Am] prick stick [G] and she glued her lips [F] together
[C] So she never had to [Am] speak, never had to [G] speak, never had to [F] speak
_ [C] People used to [Am] say she's quiet as a mouse, [G] she just doesn't make a [F] pee
[C] She marched [A] to her wardrobe and [G] she threw away [F] the colour _
[C] Because wearing black [Am] looks mysterious
[G] But it didn't impress her mother
[C] She wanted to dress [Am] her baby [G] in patterns [C] and flowers
But Mariella [Am] just crossed her arms [G] and so she cried for hours
[C] _ _ [Am] _
Mariella, [Em] Mariella, my [C] creepy baby girl
I'll glue your [Am] lips from being [Em] together and wear [C] some pink and pearls
You can [Am] have your friends round [G] and they can [F] stay for tea
[C] Won't you just [Am] try to fit in?
[Em] Please do this [F] for me
[C] But Mariella [Am] just crossed her [G] arms and she walked [F] up the stairs
And then she [C] went to [A] her bedroom and [G] she sat on her [F] bed
[C] She looked [Am] in the mirror [G] and she thought to [F] herself
[C] If I want to play, [Am] I can play with me
[G] If I want to think, I'll [F] think in my head
[C] At school, [Am] Mariella [G] didn't have [F] many friends
[C] Yeah, the girls, [A] they all looked up to her [G] and they thought she [F] was quite strange
[C] And the boys, [A] they're not really [G] into girls [F] that age
[C] And the teachers, [Am] they thought Mariella [G] was just going [F] through a phase
[C] But Mariella [Am] just [G] smiled and she geared [F] down the road
Because she knew [A] all the secrets [G] in her [F] world
Yes, she [A] always got the crossword puzzle [G] right every day
[C] She could do the [Am] alphabet [G] backwards without making any mistakes
_ [Am] Mariella, Mariella, [C] my creepy, pretty girl
[Am] Mariella, Mariella, happy [C] in her own little [Am] world
_ [Em] Happy [C] in her own little _ [Am] world
[G] _ [C] And she said
_ _ [A] _ _ [G] _ _ [F] _ _
