Mean To Me

[00:00.71] She came all the way from America
[00:04.79] She had a blind date with destiny
[00:09.11] And the sound of Te Awamutu
[00:13.12] Had a truly sacred ring
[00:17.20] Now her parents are divorced
[00:21.33] And her friend's committing suicide
[00:24.95] I could not escape
[00:26.90] A plea from the heart
[00:29.02] You know what it means to me
[00:32.42] You say I don't walk away
[00:34.75] I'm down on my knees
[00:37.02] So please don't be mean to me
[00:41.46] So I talked to you for an hour
[00:45.60] In the bar of a small town hotel
[00:49.79] And you asked me what I was thinking
[00:53.85] I was thinking of a padded cell
[00:57.98] With a black and white TV
[01:02.39] To stop us from getting lonely
[01:05.46] I could not escape
[01:07.54] A plea from the heart
[01:09.54] You know what it means to me
[01:13.14] You said don't walk away
[01:15.74] I'm down on my knees
[01:17.48] So please don't be mean to me
[01:21.25] You know I could not escape
[01:23.71] A plea from the heart
[01:25.77] Mysterious sympathy
[01:29.32] I couldn't wait for a chance
[01:31.82] To walk out the door
[01:34.04] You know what it means to me
[01:38.36] I saw you lying in the arms of a poet
[01:56.56]
[01:59.27] I heard him tell you ta-tantalizing
[02:02.79] Lies
[02:05.00]
[02:07.48] What d'ya know
[02:08.82] What d'ya know
[02:09.62] I could not escape
[02:11.69] You're down on the floor
[02:13.88] You know what it means to me
[02:17.10] I couldn't wait for a chance
[02:19.30] To walk out the door
[02:22.56] Mean
[02:23.64] Mean
[02:25.56] I could not escape
[02:27.72] I'm down on my knees
[02:29.65] You know what it means
[02:33.46] What it means
[02:37.29]
[02:40.99] I wanna know-oh-oh-oh
[02:46.44]
[02:53.67] What it means, what it means
[02:59.42]
[03:03.06] In the arms of a poet
[03:05.07] You know what it means
[03:06.36]
