Verse 1

You, with your

words like knives and

swords

And weapons that you use against me

You, have

knocked me off my

feet again

Got me feelin' like a nothin'

You, with your

voice like nails on a

chalk board

Callin' me out when I'm wounded

You,

pickin' on the weaker

man

Pre-Chorus 1

Well you can take me dow

n with just one

single

blow

But

you don't know, what you don't know...

Chorus

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?

Verse 2

You, with your

switching sides and

Your

wild fire lies and your humiliation

You, have

pointed out my

flaws again

-stop

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 o

kay again

Pre-Chorus 2

I bet you got pushed around

Somebody

made you

cold

But the cycle ends right now 'cause

You can't lead me down that road

G -stop

And you don't know what you don't know

Chorus

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?

Bridge

And I can

see you years from now in a bar

Talkin' over a

football game

With that same big loud opinion

But nobody's

listening

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

Interlude

All you are is

mean...and a

liar...and

pathetic

And

alone in life and

mean, and

mean, and

mean, and

mean

*Palm mute first 2 lines*

But

someday

I'll be

livin' in a big ol'

city

And

all you're

ever gonna be is

mean,

yeah--ah

Chorus 2

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?
