You with your words like knives
and swords and wea pons that you use a gainst me
You have knocked me off my feet a gain
got me fee lin' like a no thin'
You with your voice like nails
on a chalk board ca llin' me out when I'm woun ded
You pi ckin' on the wea ker man
Well you can take me down
with just one sin gle blow
But you don't know what you don't know
Some day I'll be li vin' in a big ole ci ty
And all you're e ver go nna be is mean
Some day
I'll be big e nough so you can't hit me
And all you're e ver go nna be is mean
why you go tta be so mean
You with your swi tching sides
And your wild fi re lies and your hu mi li a tion
You have poin ted out my flaws a gain
as if I don't al rea dy see them
I walk with my head down
tryin' to block you out 'cos I'll ne ver im press you
I just wa nna feel o kay a gain
I bet you got pushed a round
some bo dy made you cold
But the cy cle ends right now
'cos you can't lead me down that road
And you don't know what you don't know
Some day I'll be li vin' in a big ole ci ty
And all you're e ver go nna be is mean
Some day I'll be big e nough
so you can't hit me
And all you're e ver go nna be is mean
Why you go tta be so mean
And I can see you years from now
in a bar tal kin' o ver a foot ball game
With that same big loud o pi nion
but no bo dy's lis te nin'
Washed up and ran tin' 'bout the same old bi tter things
Drunk and grum blin' on a bout how I can't sing
but all you are is mean
All you are is mean
and a li ar and pa the tic
And a lone in life and mean
and mean and mean and mean
But some day I'll be li vin' in a big ole ci ty
And all you're e ver go nna be is mean
Yeah some day I'll be big e nough so you can't hit me
And all you're e ver go nna be is mean
Some day I'll be li vin' in a big ole ci ty
And all you're e ver go nna be is mean
Some day I'll be big e nough so you can't hit me
And all you're e ver go nna be is mean
Why you go tta be so mean
