Mean to Me
You're mean to me
Why must you be mean to me?
Gee, honey, it seems to me you love to see me cryin'
I don't know why I stay home
Each night when you say you'll phone, you don't
And I'm left alone singin' the blues and cryin'
Singin' the blues and cryin'
You treat me coldly each day in the year
You always scold me whenever somebody is near
And dear, it must be great fun to be mean to me
You shouldn't, for can't you see what you mean to me?
You're mean
Why must you be mean?
Gee, honey, it seems to me you love to see me cryin'
I don't know why I stay home
Each night when you say you'll phone, you don't
And I'm left alone singin' the blues and cryin'
You treat me coldly, oh, each day in the year
You always scold me whenever somebody is near
And it must be, oh, great fun to be mean to me
You shouldn't, for can't you see what you mean to me? Yeah, yeah, yeah
Can't you see what you mean to me?
Why must you be mean to me?
Gee, honey, it seems to me you love to see me cryin'
I don't know why I stay home
Each night when you say you'll phone, you don't
And I'm left alone singin' the blues and cryin'
Singin' the blues and cryin'
You treat me coldly each day in the year
You always scold me whenever somebody is near
And dear, it must be great fun to be mean to me
You shouldn't, for can't you see what you mean to me?
You're mean
Why must you be mean?
Gee, honey, it seems to me you love to see me cryin'
I don't know why I stay home
Each night when you say you'll phone, you don't
And I'm left alone singin' the blues and cryin'
You treat me coldly, oh, each day in the year
You always scold me whenever somebody is near
And it must be, oh, great fun to be mean to me
You shouldn't, for can't you see what you mean to me? Yeah, yeah, yeah
Can't you see what you mean to me?
