"Mistress Mabel" lyrics - THE FRATELLIS

THE FRATELLIS
"Mistress Mabel"
(Jon Fratelli)

[Intro:]
One, two, three, go!

[Verse 1: Jon Fratelli]
Mistress Mabel, seriously wrong
Clears my table badly, then she's gone
Takes a liberty if you let her
Yes she's old but she should know better
Oh dear Mabel, please don't put me on

[Verse 2: Jon Fratelli]
Mistress Mabel all the kids agree
You're unstable curious and free
Wind 'em down, and then keep 'em kickin'
Sunken-eyed and all panic-stricken'
Oh dear Mabel, it still worries me

[Pre-Chorus: Jon Fratelli]
Hemline ratbag so they told her
Last night's name tag across her shoulder

[Chorus: Jon Fratelli]
Tell me where all the days have gone
When you robbed my cradle
Tell me, Mabel
Where d'you go when you can't go on with this filthy fable?
Tell me, Mabel

[Verse 3: Jon Fratelli]
Mistress Mabel, won't you marry me?
I'm unable to take it seriously
I'll be good and you'll be a minute
I wish you would or I'll drop you in it
Oh, dear Mabel won't you marry me?

[Pre-Chorus: Jon Fratelli]
Hemline ratbag so they told her
Last nights name tag across her shoulder

[Chorus: Jon Fratelli]
Tell me where all the days have gone
When you robbed my cradle
Tell me, Mabel
Where d'you go when you can't go on with this filthy fable
Tell me, Mabel

[Instrmental Break: Baz Fratelli & Mince Fratelli]

[Chorus: Jon Fratelli]
Tell me where all the days have gone
When you robbed my cradle
Tell me, Mabel
Where d'you go when you can't go on with this filthy fable
Tell me, Mabel
Tell me where all the days have gone
When you robbed my cradle
Tell me, Mabel
Where d'you go when you can't go on with this filthy fable
Tell me, Mabel
