Mean Old Woman

I don't tell no secrets if I've got something to hide
I won't tell you what I'm feeling if I have something inside
I don't get in many arguments till I've had a cup of tea
But then I'll rip you into pieces - throw your truth into the sea

Cause I'm a mean old woman
You're a mean old man
We're a mean old pair but he can keep me if he can

I've never closed the door on so many places that I've lived
I've never lost my heart to one that didn't want to give
The glasses coloured rosy and my darkness turned to light
But he'll never feel alive unless he's got someone to fight

Someone like a mean old woman
You're a mean old man
We're a mean old pair but you can keep me if you can

You were kinder and more loving than, my dear, you'd ever been
While you were shining up your shoes to go start walking out again
Because the promise that you'd finally be rid of me and free
Was the only thing that kept you being nicer to me
Nicer to me
