I been to the left
I been to the right
I found myself in Abu Dadi
just a mirage in the night
Been to the high I been to the low
An' I been to lots a places
that I didn't wanna go
But I ain't seen nothin' to get me off my ass
I laughed at all the jokers
wanna make me walk on glass
I could walk 'for I could crawl
An' I was meaner than a bad dog
with his back against the wall
Animal, animal
Cannibal, cannibal
See 'em fall, see 'em fall
I'm the guy that they call
Meanstreak
I got a meanstreak
Meanstreak
They call me meanstreak
I just don't who I wanna be
The count of Monte Cristo or the Sheik of Arabi
I've eaten rich 'an I've eaten free
I'm the perfect culture vulture
in the face of poverty
An' I ain't met no one who told me I got class
Say never feed the animal
the boys got to much flash
I'm the guy they just can't teach
And I always kick the castle
that's been built up on the beach
Animal, animal
Cannibal, cannibal
See 'em fall, see 'em fall
I'm the guy they call
What's your name
Meanstreak
I got a meanstreak
I got a meanstreak
Runnin' down my back
I got a meanstreak
Wanna feel the meanstreak
They call me meanstreak
Meanstreak
What's my name
Meanstreak
