MEAN TO ME
words and music by Dickie Ueda and Gary Tang

Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?
Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?
Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?
Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?

Two days ago I talked to you, you said you'd be a sec or two,
There must have been a small mistake 'cause you arrived ten hours late!
And that was only 'cause I phoned you each hour until I got home,
And when I finally spoke to you, "I'm sorry, I forgot" was the best you could do!

Is this the right way for us to start things off?
There must've been something along the way we lost.

Don't say you'll call when you know you won't,
Why say you want me when I'm gone you don't,
Is this too much to ask of you,
To say what you'll do and do what you say.

For what you mean to me, you're so MEAN TO ME!
Can't you say what you'll do and do what you say!
For what you mean to me, you're so MEAN TO ME!
Can't you say what you'll do and do what you say!

Today I thought I'd take a chance and call you up to go out to dance,
You said that you'd be free to go and when you could you'd telephone,
Needless to say you didn't show, alive or dead I didn't know,
Now if I left it all to you, I'd probably wait a week or two.

When we're together it's easy to believe,
Whatever you tell me like I'm the one you need!

Don't say you'll call when you know you won't,
Why say you want me when I'm gone you don't,
Is this too much to ask of you,
To say what you'll do and do what you say.

For what you mean to me, you're so MEAN TO ME!
Can't you say what you'll do and do what you say!
For what you mean to me, you're so MEAN TO ME!
Can't you say what you'll do and do what you say!

Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?
Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?
Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?
Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?

Don't say you'll call when you know you won't,
Why say you want me when I'm gone you don't,
Is this too much to ask of you,
To say what you'll do and do what you say.

For what you mean to me, you're so MEAN TO ME!
Can't you say what you'll do and do what you say!
For what you mean to me, you're so MEAN TO ME!
Can't you say what you'll do and do what you say!

The future brings things we never know, but if you care why don't you show?
If you continue as you do you'll probably miss the future too,
I love you so I don't care but space and time continue there,
I've heard of people lost in time, but you my dear are lost in mind!

Why do you treat me this way when I'm away?
'Cause when you're near me you do just what I say!

Don't say you'll call when you know you won't,
Why say you want me when I'm gone you don't,
Is this too much to ask of you,
To say what you'll do and do what you say.

For what you mean to me, you're so MEAN TO ME!
Can't you say what you'll do and do what you say!
For what you mean to me, you're so MEAN TO ME!
Can't you say what you'll do and do what you say!

Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?
Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?
Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?
Why can't you and I see eye to eye is it 'cause you don't try?
