歌词：

You, with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me

You, have knocked me off my feet again, got me feeling like a nothing

You, with your voice like nails on a chalk board calling me out when I'm winded

You, picking on the weaker man.

You can take me down, with just one single blow

But you don't know, what you don't know

Some day, I'll be living in a big ole city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Some day, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean, why you gotta be so mean?

You, with your switching sides and your wildfire lies and your humilation

You, have pointed out my flaws again as if I don't already see them

I walk with my head down tryna block you out, cause I'll never impress you

I just wanna feel okay again

I bet you got pushed around, somebody made you cold

But the cycle ends right now, cause you can't lead me down that road

And you don't know, what you don't know

Some day, I'll be living in a big ole city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Some day, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean, why you gotta be so mean?

And I can see you years from now in a bar talking over a football game

With that same big, loud opinion but nobody's listening

Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things

Drunk and rumbling on about how I can't sing, but all you are is mean

All you are is mean, and a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life,

And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean

But some day, I'll be living in a big ole city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean. Yeah

Some day, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean, why you gotta be so mean?

Some day, I'll be living in a big ole city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Some day, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean, why you gotta be so mean?
