Why Are You So Mean To Me?

This is a Vitreous Humor song and in the original version the "I'll never be like you, No matter what you do. " isnt part of the orignial lyrics. I always thought this song was about smoking pot, but really it can apply to anything along the lines of being a teen and doing thigns your not supposed to

this song is totally awesome. it was the first song i had ever heard by this band, and it really got me into listening to their music. i think its pretty obvious what its about, lol. its too bad that this song really isnt all that widely known, i cant find guitar tablature for it anywhere! if anyone has it or knows where to find it, please message or email me at snow_rider23@hotmail.com
Thanx tHwAcK!

drugs or sex?

You think its obvious? can you tell me, what it is about? can anyone?

this song is about a young kid who keeps hearing/seeing his mom being abused by his father hence the lines: "You tell mum, I'll break your neck, she's already a nervous wreck"

the last part is about how the kid tells himself that he'll never abuse his wife like his dad does.

I agree with lazarzmongo2. But I don't get "I remember my first time/ I knew I had to cross the line" Like, is he saying that he had to tell someone? First time?

you should also check the original version of this song. it's pretty amazing.

This song can have many different meanings

"You tell mum, I'll break your neck, she's already a nervous wreck,"

Could be a father or sibling that is doing something wrong either to himself or others, and that the mother doesn't need to know about it, because she's already stressed as it is.

"I don't do it every day, It doesn't hurt me anyway,"

Could mean that the person smokes weed, drinks, etc.

"you watch way too much TV" Could mean that television has influenced this person.

"I remember my first time, I knew I had to cross the line,"

Could mean the first bad thing that happened to him/her made them tell someone about it.

"I'll never be like you, No matter what you do."

Obviously means they will never consider this other person as a role model

etc.

I think that AngéliqueArnauld is right about drugs/sex or reckless behavior.

"You tell mum, I'll break your neck, she's already a nervous wreck,"

That a sibling found him doing something bad and he is warning them not to tell. The mother is stressed about the family.

"I don't do it every day, It doesn't hurt me anyway,"

doing drugs. Telling the sibling not to worry about him.

"Why are you so mean to me? you'll regret eventually,"

not quite sure, i think its the sibling is saying that they will tell, he is saying that the sibling is being mean and will regret it. "you watch way too much TV"

he is saying that TV makes it seem worse than it actually is

"I remember my first time, I knew I had to cross the line, I went home I cried alot, I didn't think that I'd get caught,"

explaining what happened during his first time doing it. After he did it he regretted what he did. Kept doing it because he didn't think he would get caught.

"I'll never be like you, No matter what you do."

the sibling is telling that he will never be like the guy.

This was exactly the situation with my brother a few years ago...he started doing things that we looked down on him for. He became the black sheep of the family and, of course, his own selfish point of view was that everybody was just "being mean to him"
