Lyrics:

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
Can't go on I'm a-losin' my mind
How can you be so mean? How can you be so mean?
You tell me, pretty baby, how can you be so mean

Oh-oh-oh, why do you cause me so much pain?
Don't you know you're driving me insane?
How can you be so mean? How can you be so mean?
You tell me, pretty baby, how can you be so mean

I'm so unhappy, blue as could be
Don't you know that you're killin' me?
How can you be so mean? How can you be so mean?
You tell me, pretty baby, how can you be so mean

So mean, so mean
You tell me, pretty baby, how can you be so mean
