You said you love me, well, that's due.
When I'm gone you're kissin' someone new.
How can you be so mean? How can you be so mean?
You tell me, pretty baby, how can you be so mean.
My heart is a-heavy, so unkind.

Don't you know you're driving me insane?
How can you be so mean? How can you be so mean?
