My Dear Mabel
Queen-like piano and harmonies lead to fast-paced rock song with plenty of strings and a fuzz-laden guitar solo. ------- “Cool rock melodies and feel… It feels like a Queen song and that’s cool… a lot of interesting musical parts” (Nashville Songwriters Association International Song Evaluator) ------- “The edginess of the music and lyrics sit in welcome juxtaposition to that most old-fashioned of female first names, ending with the unexpected agency of someone who in the singer’s telling sounds like an Agatha-Christie character” (Mari Royla) ------- “The sections with multiple voices remind me of Queen.” (Reverb Nation Crowd Review) ------- “We really like what you did here, Pierre” (Freddie Mercury & Brian May) ------- Lyrics Oh, how, how I wish we hadn’t done The things we did at your place last night, My dear Mabel Those wonderful things we did In your bed and on your kitchen table For I fear, I fear that without realizing, We might have begun weaving a web From which we might well Struggle to disentangle My plan: we would just hook up for the night And then be done But when I took the walk of shame I felt alone, That it was wrong And that those moments without you Were far too long And now I wish your kitchen table Had been too small And that the things done at your place Had not been done For, all day long, I’ve been thinking of you But something tells me that you don’t Oh, how, how I wish I had stayed At your place for breakfast this morning, My dear Mabel That I had sat at your Uncomfortable kitchen table And finally seen it from another angle For I know, I know without exaggerating We’re really meant to be an item To weave a web, to ride in tandem Call me romantic, but I know we click so, Come on, let’s snuggle and get tangled My plan: I will just move in with you now And then be done I’ll meet your parents And I will call your place our home And then my song Will be the happiest little ditty ever sung And now I wish that you would just Pick up your phone But could it be the number you gave me Might be wrong? For, all day long, I’ve tried to say I love you But something tells me that you don’t.more
