I'm heavy handed, to say the least. My mother thinks I'll be an awful
clutcher 'cus I spill things from stiring too quickly. I'm far too
loud. Its 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, sometimes, I wish I was like Mariella, she got some
pritt 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 shes
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 blacklooks
mysterious, but it didn't impress her mother. She wanted to dress her
baby in patterns and flowers, but Mariella just crossedher 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 intoher bedroom, and she sat on
her bed. And she looked in the mirror and she thought to herself If I
wanna play, I canplay with me, If I wanna think, I'll think in my
head. At school, Mariella didn't have many friends, yeah, the girls
there, theylooked 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 thesecrets in her
world. yeah, she always got the crossword puzzle right every day and
she could do thealphabet 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
