She's So Mean Lyrics

I kn-kn-know a girl
She gets what she wants all the time
Cause she’s fine
But for an angel, she’s a hot, hot mess
Make you so blind
But you don’t mind

Cause she’s an uptown, get-around, anything-goes girl, girl
She’s a hardcore, candy-store, give-me-some-more girl, girl

She’ll make you take her to the club, but then she leaves with her friends
She likes to stay late at the party cause the fun never ends
And all her clothes are on the floor, and all your records are scratched
She’s like a one-way ticket cause you can’t come back

Sayin’ yeah, and you want her
But she’s so mean
(You’ll never let her go, why don’t you let her go?)
Yeah, and you want her
But she’s so mean
(You’ll never let her go, why don’t you let her go?)

You kn-kn-know that if you don’t shut your mouth
She’ll freak out
You better get your shit together
Cause she’s bringing you down, now
Yeah, boy, you better, you better

Cause she’s an uptown, get-around, anything-goes girl, girl
She’s a hardcore, candy-store, give-me-some-more girl, girl

She’s got a wicked sense of humor, can’t believe what she says
She drinks Bacardi in the morning till it goes to her head
And all you want is just to hold her, but she don’t go for that
She has a hard time coming when she can’t hit back

Sayin’ yeah, and you want her
But she’s so mean
(You’ll never let her go, why don’t you let her go?)
Yeah, and you want her
But she’s so mean
(You’ll never let her go, why don’t you let her go?)

Every now and then she makes you just a little bit crazy, baby
She’ll turn the knife into your back and then she’s calling you ‘baby’, crazy

She’ll make you take her to the club, but then she leaves with her friends
She likes to stay late at the party cause the fun never ends
And all her clothes are on the floor, and all your records are scratched
She’s like a one-way ticket cause you can’t come back

Sayin’ yeah, and you want her
But she’s so mean
(You’ll never let her go, why don’t you let her go?)
Yeah, and you want her
But she’s so mean
(You’ll never let her go, why don’t you let her go?)
Yeah, and you want her
Yeah, you want her
Yeah, I know how you want her, but she’s so mean
(You’ll never let her go, why don’t you let her go?)

Love this song. I love the energy of it. It's obviously about a young woman who is physically attractive and who does whatever she wishes...she's fun, wild, selfish, and downright mean at times, but she's desired. The fatal attraction keeps the guy hooked. Not familiar with the band so I can't compare this song to its others, but I do like this one...a lot

Haha I feel like this song is about me and every other girl who is in their young 20s right now dating older men. They love how unpredictable and spontaneous we are. We are so passionate, naughty, funny and naive, and for the older guys it reminds them a little of their youth. But at the same time they can never take us seriously and know deep down we are not the ones they should be messing around with. Because there is pressure from society and family/friends to settle down and get married. So they break our hearts because us young girls have so much to give because we haven't lost enough in life yet or haven't been through as much as the older guy has been.

This one is pretty straight forward. It seems as though Matchbox 20 is trying to appeal to a younger crowd. Hopefully they retained some of their old style on the new album, I had always kinda hoped they'd get back together and I know they could fill the ampitheatre again here in Virginia Beach.
