Mean Street - Van Halen (範·海倫)

Written by：Alex Van Halen,David Lee Roth,Edward Van Halen,Michael Anthony

At night I walk this stinkin' street past the crazy 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 talking some new kicks ones like you ain't never seen

This is home

This is mean street

This is home

The only one I know

And we don't worry 'bout tomorrow cause we're sick of these four walls

Now what you think is nothing might be something after all

Now you know this ain't no through street end is dead ahead

Poor folks play for keeps down here they're the living dead

Come on down

Down to mean street

They're dancing now

Out on mean street

Dance baby

It's always here and now my friend it ain't once upon a time

It's all over but the shouting I come and take what's mine

I'm searching for the latest thing a break in this routine

I'm talking some new kicks ones like you ain't never seen

This is home

This is mean street

This is home

The only one I know

This is home

See a gun is real easy

This is mean street

In this desperate part of town

This is home

Turns you from hunted into hunter

This is mean street

Go and hunt somebody down

This is home

Somebody said fair warning

This is mean street

The Lord strike that poor boy down
