Mean Streets
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mean Street
Like Robert Deniro
He’s mad for a reason
His reasons unclear though
Mean Street
We’re flexing machismo
It’s rockers and moos
It’s the fragile young ego
Mean Streets!
Oh
Maybe we need less style
More substance, substance
Freaks are in the mainstream
On TV, Radio, CBC
Freaks are in the courtroom testifying
Go to jail looking fly
Don’t pass go, no dough fo yo
Ten years fo sho, so story go
Talking past
No talk at all
Just slogans, memes and dick fuck all
Ah
Oh!
