Puck:
You, with your words like knives
And swords and weapons that you use against me,
You, have knocked me off my feet again,
Got me feeling like I'm nothing.
You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard
Calling me out when I'm wounded.
You, pickin' on the weaker man.

Coach Beiste:
Well you can take me down,
With just one single blow.
But you don't know, what you don't know,

Puck with Coach Beiste:
Someday, I'll be living in a big old city,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.

Puck:
Why you gotta be so mean?

Coach Beiste:
You, with your switching sides,
And your wildfire lies and your humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again,
As if I don't already see them.

Both:
I walk with my head down,
Trying to block you out 

Puck:
Cause I'll never impress you
I just wanna feel okay again.

I bet you got pushed around,

Puck with Coach Beiste:
Somebody made you cold,

Puck:
But the cycle ends right now,

Coach Beiste:
You can't lead me down that road,
You don't know, what you don't know

Puck with Coach Beiste:
Someday, I'll be, living in a big old city,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.

Puck:
Why you gotta be so mean?

And I can see you years from now in a bar,

Puck with Coach Beiste:
Talking over a football game,

Puck:
With that same big loud opinion but,

Puck with Coach Beiste:
Nobody's listening,

Puck:
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things,

Coach Beiste: [bad word] and [bad word] on about how I can't sing.

But all you are is mean,

Puck:
All you are is mean.
And a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life, and mean

Puck with Coach Beiste:
And mean, and mean, and mean

But someday, I'll be, living in a big old city,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean. Yeah,
Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.

Coach Beiste:
Why you gotta be so mean?

Puck:
Someday, I'll be, living in a big old city,

Coach Beiste:
Why you gotta be so mean?

Puck:
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.

Coach Beiste:
Why you gotta be so mean? 

Puck:
Someday, I'll be living in a big old city,

Coach Beiste:
Why you gotta be so mean?

Puck:
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.

Puck with Coach Beiste:
Why you gotta be so mean?
