The Fratellis - Mistress Mabel
From the 2008 album "Here We Stand".
Jon said; "The first single, it has a lot of little ideas crammed into a small space.
Lyric-wise it's the only song that is total nonsense.
I started with the little keyboard synth part that runs all the way through it, which is weird as it's the only song I have written that came from a musical idea.
Usually I sit writing by strumming the guitar rather than building from a little idea."

It's not nonsense... I always thought it was about a young guy who had a lot of sex with an older woman! And then she left him, and he's like NOOOO D:
Isn't it?
Maybe not. :P
