  At night I walk this stinkin' street
  Past the crazies on my block
  And I see the same old faces
  And I hear that same old talk
  And I'm searching for the latest thing
  A break in this routine
  I'm talkin' some new kicks
  Ones like you ain't never seen
  This is home
  This is Meanstreet
  It's our home
  The only one I know
  And we don't worry 'bout tomorrow
  Cause we're sick of these four walls
  Now what'd ya think is nothing
  Might be something after all
  Now you know this ain't no through street
  The end is dead ahead
  The poor folks play for keeps down here
  They're the living dead
  Come on down
  Down to Meanstreet
  They're dancing now
  Out on Meanstreet
  It's always here and now, my friend
  It ain't once upon a time
  It's all over but the shouting
  I'll come and I'll take what's mine
  We're searching for the latest thing
  A break in this routine
  Talkin' some new kicks
  Ones like you ain't never seen
  This is home
  This is Meanstreet
  It's our home
  Only one I know
  (This is home) See, a gun is real easy
  (This is Meanstreet) In this desperate part of town
  (This is home) Turns you from hunted into hunter
  (This is Meanstreet) Go and hunt somebody down
  (This is home) But hear me now, somebody said "Fair Warning, Lord !"
  (This is Meanstreet) Lord, strike that poor boy down
