Mean ol' man

It's like you're telling me things that I already know
You knew the kind of man I was before you found yourself begging for more
Because I used to love you, I used to care
I thought that we'd survive somehow, we're now living on a prayer

But now I'm a mean 'ol man
(Mean 'ol man)
I'm a mean 'ol man
(Mean 'ol man)
I know that I'll never write a little scandal with your heart in my hand
(Heart in my hand)
And I don't mean to be cruel (cruel)
I never meant to hurt you (hurt you)
But now I'm a mean 'ol man
(Mean 'ol man)
I'm a mean 'ol

So tell me what's up with the circus?
Tell me what's with your dress?
You tell me what's with the lonely hearts go to?
Did you find it when we couldn't be fixed?
There was nobody like us: is what we thought in our heads
There was never a love like this, step before we put us to bed

But now all your friends say I'm a mean 'ol man
(Mean 'ol man)
I'm a mean 'ol man
(Mean 'ol man)
I know that I'll never write a little scandal with your heart in my hand
(Heart in my hand)
And I don't mean to be cruel (cruel)
I never meant to hurt you (hurt you)
But now I'm a mean 'ol man
(Mean 'ol man)
I'm a mean 'ol

(So cruel, so cruel)
(So cruel, so so cruel)
(So cruel, so cruel)
(So cruel, oh so cruel)
(So cruel, so cruel)
(So cruel, so so cruel)
(So cruel, so cruel)
(So cruel, so so cruel)
(So cruel)
It's all lies
(So cruel)
It's untrue
(So cruel)
There must [?]
(So cruel)
It's all lies
(So cruel)

Well I would really like to help you
Well I would die

But I'm a mean 'ol man
(Mean 'ol man)
I'm a mean 'ol man
(Mean 'ol man)
I know that I'll never write a little scandal with your heart in my hand
(Heart in my hand)
And I don't mean to be cruel (cruel)
I never meant to hurt you (hurt you)
But now I'm a mean 'ol man
(Mean 'ol man)
I'm a mean 'ol

Yeah, I'm a mean 'ol
Come on Mr. Mean 'Ol Man
[?]
Mr. Mean 'Ol Man
Mr. Mean 'Ol
Mean 'ol man
Said I'm a mean 'ol
