Mean

You, with your words like knives and swords (G) And weapons that you use against me You, have knocked me off my feet again (G) Got me feelin'like a nothin' You, with your voice like nails on a chalk board (G) Callin'me out when I'm wounded You, pickin'on the weaker man Well you can take me down with just one single blow But you don't know, what you don't know... Someday I'll be livin'in a big ol'city And all you're ever gonna be is mean Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me And all you're ever gonna be is mean Why you gotta be so mean ? You, with your swithching sides and Your wild fire lies and your humiliation You, have pointed out my flaws again As if I don't already see them I walk with my head down Tryin'to block you out 'Cause I never impress you I just wanna feel okay again I bet you got pushed around Somebody made you cold (A) But the cycle ends right now 'cause You can't lead me down that road And you don't know what you don't know Someday I'll be livin in a big ol'city And all you're ever gonna be is mean Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me And all you're ever gonna be is mean Why you gotta be so mean ?                And I can see you years from now in a bar Talkin'over a football game (A) With that same big loud opinion But no one's listening (A) Washed up and ranting about the Same old  bitter  things Drunk and grumblin'all about how I  can't sing But all you are is mean All you are is mean...and a liar...and pathetic And alone in life and mean, and mean, and mean, and mean But someday I'll be livin in a big ol'city And all you're ever gonna be is mean,  yeah--ah Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me And all you're ever gonna be is mean Why you gotta be so...Someday I'll be livin in a big ol'city (why ya gotta be so mean) And all you're ever gonna be is mean (why ya gotta be so mean) Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me (why ya gotta be so mean) And all you're ever gonna be is mean Why you gotta be so  mean ?
