In the chorus, “Don’t call me up, I am going out tonight…” the artiste is so relieved that she and her boyfriend are no longer together. She says she is better off now that he is out of her life. She blames her ex for her current emotionless and unfriendly attitude towards him. Without any form of regret, she says she has no feelings for her ex-boyfriend anymore. In the Pre Chorus, “I’m over you and I don’t need your lies no more…” The artiste says she can’t take any more of her ex’s deceit. She further says anytime her ex looks at her picture and he finds her so sexually attractive that his heart suddenly aches for her and longs to be with, her, he should not call her up. But she orders him not to call her up because she is over him and she is trying to have immense fun and get her freak on. However, her boyfriend wants her back so he keeps calling her phone. In the verse 1, “When I am underneath the bright lights, when I am tryna have a good time…” Mabel is so relieved that she and her boyfriend are no longer together. Song arrangement– Verse 1-Pre Chorus- Chorus- Verse 2- Pre Chorus- Chorus- Verse 3- Pre Chorus- Chorus The word “underneath” before the “bright light” makes it look like she is far from being happy after the breakup even though the entire song makes one understand that she is having fun and she is better after the breakup. However, I am wondering why she used the word “Underneath the bright light.” The word underneath means “Below” while bright light according to Google means doing a lot of enjoyable and exciting things to be happy or successful. The lyrics are interesting and the line “Don’t call me up” is catchy.
It is about the artiste- Mabel who is not ready to go back to her dishonest boyfriend even though he wants her back and keeps calling her phones. The lyrics flowed perfectly with the beat.
Mabel dont call me up lyrics full#
Each line is dependent on the next line to make a full meaning. The chorus and pre chorus was done three times each. Lyrically, the song comes in two verses made up of 7 lines each. The “Babe O” that her boyfriend at the beginning of the song called out has really got my attention I don’t know why though.
