Mean to Me by Alice Russell
One of my favourite songs by a great British soul singer.
Could be my personal soundtrack. :)
By popular demand, here are the lyrics:
You can always be mean to me
or you could keep me on side
we could work this out easily
but i don't know if i'll try, anymore
so carry on being mean to me
and all you'll get is dry ice
where's the kissing and the pleasing me?
it's like somebody died
I'm giving you recipes
cos you have to feed fire
I'm giving you chemistry
cos you have to feed fire
I'm giving you
recipes, chemistry, everything
yes all of me: recipes, chemistry
cos you have to feed fire
You could always be mean to me
or you could treat me nice and kind
you could be huggin' and a'squeezin' me
you could be holding me tight
but carry on the way you're treatin' me
and wait for letters I wont write
where's the kissing and the pleasing me?
it's like somebody died
I'm giving you recipes
cos you have to feed fire
I'm giving you chemistry
cos you have to feed fire
I'm giving you
recipes, chemistry, everything
yes all of me: medicine, energy
cos you have to feed fire
I'm giving you recipes, chemistry, everything
yes all of me: yes recipes, chemistry
cos you have to feed fire
