You're mean to me, why must you be mean to me? Gee honey, it seems to me, you love to see me cryin' I don't know why I stay home each night when you say you're phone You don't think I'm left alone, singin' the blues and cryin' You treat me coldly each day of the year You always scold me whenever somebody is near and dear And it must be great fun to be mean to me You shouldn't forget, you see, what you mean to me You're mean, why must you be mean? Gee honey, it seems to me, you love to see me cryin' I don't know why I stay home each night when you say you're phone You don't think I'm left alone, singin' the blues and cryin' You treat me coldly each day of the year You always scold me whenever somebody is near And it must be great fun to be mean to me You shouldn't forget, you see, what you mean to me Can't you see what you mean to me?
