"I'm feeling mean today"
I'm feeling mean today.
Not like I'd scrape your car door with my house key mean,
And not like I'd kick your cat mean.
I'm not feeling mean like I'd throw a rock at that window.
No, I'm just feeling mean like I'd pretend that my phone was turned off,
Or mean like I wouldn't recycle this bottle.
I'm feeling mean like I would walk across a clean floor with muddy shoes
And wouldn't care.
