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 Im searching for the latest thing  
A break in this routine  
Im talkin some new kicks  
Ones like you aint never seen  
This is home  
This is Meanstreet  
Its our home  
The only one I know  
And we dont worry bout tomorrow  
Cause were sick of these four walls  
Now whatd ya think is nothing  
Might be something after all  
Now you know this aint no through street  
The end is dead ahead  
The poor folks play for keeps down here  
Theyre the living dead  
Come on down  
Down to Meanstreet  
Theyre dancing now  
Out on Meanstreet  
Its always here and now, my friend  
It aint once upon a time  
Its all over but the shouting  
Ill come and Ill take whats mine  
Were searching for the latest thing  
A break in this routine  
Talkin some new kicks  
Ones like you aint never seen  
This is home  
This is Meanstreet  
Its 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
