Crowded House - Mean To Me(1986)

[00:01.05] She came all the way from America
[00:05.28] She had a blind date with destiny
[00:09.73] And the sound of Te Awamutu
[00:13.79] Had a truly sacred ring
[00:17.75] Now her parents are divorced
[00:21.76] And her friend's committing suicide
[00:25.41] I could not escape
[00:27.08] A plea from the heart
[00:29.37] You know what it means to me
[00:32.79] You say I don't walk away
[00:35.11] I'm down on my knees
[00:37.00] So please don't be mean to me
[00:41.72] So I talked to you for an hour
[00:45.99] In the bar of a small town hotel
[00:49.86] And you asked me what I was thinking
[00:53.82] I was thinking of a padded cell
[00:58.03] With a black and white TV
[01:02.65] To stop us from getting lonely
[01:05.80] I could not escape
[01:07.61] A plea from the heart
[01:09.64] You know what it means to me
[01:13.30] You said don't walk away
[01:15.64] I'm down on my knees
[01:17.52] So please don't be mean to me
[01:21.27] You know I could not escape
[01:23.61] A plea from the heart
[01:25.93] Mysterious sympathy
[01:29.42] I couldn't wait for a chance
[01:32.13] To walk out the door
[01:34.01] You know what it means to me
[01:39.67]
[01:51.64] I saw you lying in the arms of a poet
[01:59.68] I heard him tell you ta-tantalizing
[02:03.10] Lies
[02:05.31]
[02:07.68] What d'ya know
[02:09.18] What d'ya know
[02:10.16] I could not escape
[02:11.95] You're down on the floor
[02:13.99] You know what it means to me
[02:17.14] I couldn't wait for a chance
[02:20.01] To walk out the door
[02:23.00] Mean
[02:24.96] Mean
[02:25.92] I could not escape
[02:27.92] I'm down on my knees
[02:29.94] You know what it means
[02:33.68] What it means
[02:37.51]
[02:41.24] I wanna know-oh-oh-oh
[02:46.69]
[02:54.08] What it means, what it means
[02:59.83]
[03:03.44] In the arms of a poet
[03:05.44] You know what it means
[03:06.73]
