You Can Be So Mean Lyrics - John Entwistle

Do you remember the first time we kissed? 

Baby, the drive in movie, one kiss I couldn't resist 

Baby, you went again with another boy to see the part you missed 

Baby you can be so mean. 

You promised to love me for rich or for poor 

Baby, to be faithful and true, this is what you swore 

Baby, how come our kids look like the fella next door? 

Baby you can be so mean. 

Oooh baby I begged you on my knees to let me stay 

But you slammed my fingers in the door 

Sticks and stones may break my bones 

But you hurt me, you hurt me a whole lot more 

Oh - oh. 

(Sax Solo) 

Maybe I was a fool to love you anyhow 

But how was I to know 

You'd run around with every boy in town 

And then tell me, tell me to pack up and go 

Oh. 

Baby, you left me kneeling with my head on the floor 

Baby, wondering why, with my hand still in the door 

Baby, maybe it's cause I love you much much more than you love me. 

Baby, you were the one that said we must part 

Baby, you said you never loved me right from the start 

Baby, you took the kids, the car, the house, and left me a broken heart 

Baby, you can be so mean 

Baby, you can be so mean.
