So Mean
Lions Head Lyrics

You used to talk like you were dangerous
You used to speak with confidence and a sense of power.

Tell me to behave 'cause I don't know who you are
You would instruct me to act a certain way because I couldn't understand your true nature.

I must admit, you do amaze me
I have to confess, you truly astound me.

But girl, that's how you played me to believe your every word
Yet, that is how you manipulated me into trusting everything you said.

Then I mix it up (woo!)
Then I introduce some variety and excitement to the situation.

And you're mad
And it angers you.

Then I bring that one thing up and that's that, you're done
Then I mention that particular topic and that instantly ends the conversation or relationship.

Then you act like I'm contagious
Then you behave as if I am someone to avoid like a disease.

'Specially when you're raging or goin' through my phone
Especially when you are furious or suspiciously checking my phone.

Why you gotta be so mean? (So mean)
Why do you have to display such cruelty towards me?

Why you gotta keep on doin' dirt on me
Why do you continue to deceive and betray me?

You're mean, so mean (so mean)
You are heartless, extremely heartless.

To me
Towards me specifically.

Why you gotta, why you gotta hurt me like no one else?
Why do you have to inflict pain on me in a way that no one else does?

Is it 'cause you know me so damn well?
Could it be because you have a deep understanding of who I really am?

Why you gotta be so mean
Why do you have to be so cruel?

I used to treat you like an angel
I used to regard you with utmost love and care.

Kiss over the table
We would share affectionate kisses while sitting at a table.

And sing, 'I Want To Hold Your Hand'
And sing along to the song 'I Want To Hold Your Hand'.

Never knew you liked The Beatles
I was unaware that you enjoyed listening to The Beatles.

Guess we're just two people
I suppose we are simply two individuals.

Who wanna fall in love
Who desire to experience the feeling of love.

But then I get fucked up (oops)
But then I become intoxicated or make a mistake.

And you're mad
And you become furious.

Can I bring the one thing up and that's that, you're done?
Can I mention that particular issue and completely end the relationship?

Baby, what you so afraid of?
Darling, what are you so scared of?

Think I would've stayed if I want somebody else?
Do you think I would have remained in this relationship if I desired someone else?

You ignore every call I make
You deliberately avoid answering any of my calls.

When I text, you say, 'I'm busy, babe'
When I send you a text, you respond with 'I'm busy, babe'.

You say things that I would never say to you
You utter words that I would never use when speaking to you.

When we go out on a Friday night
When we go out together on a Friday evening.

And all you do is talk to other guys
And all you do is engage in conversations with other men.

Tell me, honestly, does that seem right to you?
Tell me, sincerely, does that appear acceptable or just to you?

(No, it doesn't seem right to me)
(No, it does not appear right to me)

Why you gotta, why you gotta be so mean to me?
Why do you have to treat me with such cruelty?
