She's a young lady, said "How do you do?"
I said: "I don't know"
She's got nothing to hide... oh no
She said: "You really don't know or you're too scared to talk?"
I said: "I don't know, but I think to know that you're all alone"
She stares me in the eyes, says nothing for a while and she lights up a smoke
She said: "You really believe that, a girl like me?"
So I told her: "Yes"
And she looked impressed as she was looking away
"Already know how you're doing?" she said
"Or you still don't?"
Are you gonna play mean baby
Do you blame it on me baby
Are you gonna play mean baby
Don't you blame it on me baby
She said: "Mr Soulreader, you all know it so well, but let me tell you something"
"I bet you ain't got no plan"
She said: "Good for you, the world's biggest filth is people making plans"
"I'm leaving town, unless you have any plans?"
Are you gonna play mean baby
Do you blame it on me baby
Are you gonna play mean baby
Don't you blame it on me baby
Are you gonna play mean baby
Do you blame it on me baby
Are you gonna play mean baby
Don't you blame it on me baby
Whenever you're in, always be prepared
To get out, always when you can
Whenever you're in
She's not gonna be mistaken
She's been laughing at your shaking
See life is bigger than to consider
Right from wrong and sweet from bitter
Now she's not gonna be mistaken
She never meant to be your saver
Are you gonna play mean baby
Do you blame it on me baby
Are you gonna play mean baby
Don't you blame it on me baby
Are you gonna play mean baby
Do you blame it on me baby
Are you gonna play mean baby
Don't you blame it on me baby
