Bad Behaviour
Mabel Lyrics

Na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na On my bad behaviour Na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na, na na
Mabel is telling us that she is about to be on her bad behavior as we hear the joyful and playful repeating sound of 'na na na' throughout the song

Don't get me faded Don't play my favorite If you don't wanna see me acting like a fool If you can't keep up with my bad behavior You can't contain me Every time I'm up, I run around you You know you can't keep up
As Mabel asks us not to get her faded or play her favorite songs, she tells us that our inability to keep up with her wild behavior is our own fault

They ask if it's my birthday Say "What we celebrating" Everybody dance around me, dance around me Mmm, the whole room looking my way Cause the after-party's my place I got 'em all around me, all around me Mmm
Mabel describes how she is the center of attention at the party with everyone dancing and looking her way, celebrating the after-party in her place

Don't wait, not a minute We here, no limit, no pressure baby Can't dip, now we in it It's gonna be a good one Never no pressure baby I was unruly when you met me You just have to accept it And if you can't handle it
Mabel reminds us not to wait and to enjoy ourselves in this moment, emphasizing that there is no pressure. She tells us that she was unruly when we first met her and we simply have to accept it and enjoy the ride

On you, all the drinks are on you You know how I like to So dance around me, dance around me Don't need a real occasion 'Cause if there isn't then I'll make one Don't you know about me, know about me
Mabel tells us that we should dance around her and understand that she likes to freely celebrate without the need for a real occasion. She will create her own celebration if necessary

No I don't mean to tease you But I'm not a people pleaser No I don't need a reason Not doing it for you I'm just doing it for me, yeah
Mabel clarifies that she is not teasing us, but that she does not aim to please others. She does not need a reason to engage in her bad behavior and it is simply for her own enjoyment

Na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na With my bad behavior Na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na With my bad behavior
Mabel repeats that her bad behavior is the central theme of the song as she continues to hum the playful tune of 'na na na'

If you don't wanna see me acting like a fool If you can't keep up with my bad behavior You can't contain me 'Cause every time I'm up, I'm all around you You know you can't keep up With my bad behavior
Mabel reminds us once again that if we cannot keep up with her wild behavior, we simply cannot contain her as she will always be around us acting like a fool
