Mean To Me

Actual lyrics:

She came all the way from America She had a blind date with destiny And the sound of Te Awamutu Had a truly sacred ring Now her parents Are divorced And her friend's committing suicide

I could not escape A plea from the heart You know what it means to me She said don't walk away I'm down on my knees So please don't be mean to me

So I talked to you for an hour In the bar of a small town hotel And you asked me what I was thinking I was thinking of a padded cell With a black and white T.V To stop us from getting lonely

I could not escape A plea from the heart You know what it means to me You said don't walk away I'm down on my knees So please don't be mean to me

You know I could not escape A plea from the heart Mysterious sympathy I couldn't wait for a chance Walk out the door You know what it means to me

I... I...

I saw you lying in the arms of a poet I I heard him tell you ta...tantalizing Lies What'd'ya know Whad'd'ya know

I could not escape You're down on the floor You know what it means to me I couldn't wait for a chance Walk out the door Mean... Mean... I could not escape Down on my knees You know what it means

What it means What it means

In the arms of a poet You know what it means
