Lyrics
Verse
She struts in like she owns the room
Nails sharp, eyes like daggers zoom
Talks sweet but it's all a front
Puts you down just for the hunt
Laughs loud when you're feelin' low
Steps on toes wherever she goes
Pre-chorus
One look and you know it's trouble
Her words hit hard like a bubble burst
(yeah, burst)
Chorus
Mean lady, mean lady
Why you gotta be so mean lady?
Mean lady, mean lady
Twist the knife, make it bleed baby
Mean lady (mean lady), mean lady (mean lady)
You're the queen of cruelty, yeah
Mean lady, mean lady
Stay away, stay away from me
Verse
Bossin' friends like it's her throne
Steals the shine, leaves you alone
Fake tears when the spotlight's hers
Plays the victim, spreads the spurs
One wrong word and she flips the switch
Burns the bridge, leaves you in the ditch
Pre-chorus
One smile and you're caught in the web
Her poison words, they stick like glue
(oh yeah, glue)
Chorus
Mean lady, mean lady
Why you gotta be so mean lady?
Mean lady, mean lady
Twist the knife, make it bleed baby
Mean lady (mean lady), mean lady (mean lady)
You're the queen of cruelty, yeah
Mean lady, mean lady
Stay away, stay away from me
Bridge
Thought you had me shakin' in my boots
But I'm done dancin' to your roots
Your game's old, your tricks are lame
Time to flip it, remember my name
(hey, hey) No more games, no more chains
Chorus
Mean lady, mean lady
Why you gotta be so mean lady? (so mean)
Mean lady, mean lady
Twist the knife, make it bleed baby
Mean lady (mean lady), mean lady (mean lady)
You're the queen of cruelty, yeah
Mean lady, mean lady
Stay away, stay away from me
Mean lady (mean, mean), mean lady (mean, mean)
Outro
Mean lady... (fade out)
Stay away... yeah
