Lyrics
Wine in one hand,
Cold dinner on the table.
Watching, waiting,
Sits kick-ass rockstar Mabel.
Where's her boyfriend?
Nobody knows.
She grabs a fork or two,
And she finally blows.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa.
One good hard toss,
A crash would satisfy her.
Make a big mess
And see what that might buy her.
It's so quiet --
That was a bust.
She wanted fairy tales,
But instead she got dust.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Silver on the floor,
Ready to decay and rust.
Don't you know that
Forks don't, they don't break.
Like a lover, they fall around you.
Forks don't, they don't break.
Then they leave you right where they found you.
Throw a fork and see what happens --
They won't break, but you know what's oh, so true?
That hearts often do.
Yes, they do.
Yes, they do.
Yes, they do.
Mabel won't cry,
She's much too busy thinking.
Here's the wine glass --
She'd throw it, but she's drinking.
What to chuck next?
She's needing more.
She's at the counter now,
And she's op'ning the drawer.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Ready, aim and fire --
Mabel's gonna go to war!
Don't you know that
Forks don't, they don't break.
Like a lover, they fall around you.
Forks don't, they don't break.
Then they leave you right where they found you.
Throw a fork and see what happens --
They won't break, but you know what's oh, so true?
That hearts often do.
She throws a plate,
It quickly shatters.
It doesn't help,
As if that matters.
She looks around,
She sees his Xbox,
And on the shelf,
His set of pet rocks.
She picks them up,
Looks at the boy's toys,
Then with a crash,
Hey, Mabel fin'ly makes some noise.
When he gets home
The place is a disaster.
Mabel's moving,
He backs out even faster.
Bye bye, butthead,
Big sip of wine.
She tips the bottle back,
Mabel's doing just fine!
And I am telling you
Forks don't, they don't break,
If they hurt you, then just refuse them.
Forks don't, they don't break,
But they're sharp if you need to use them.
Throw a fork and see what happens --
Like a woman who's staying right on track,
They sure can bounce back.
Ooo, they do.
They bounce back.
It's so true.
Yes, yes, they do.
Yes, they do.
Yes, they do.
