Meanstreak
AC/DC · Blow Up Your Video
I've been to the left, I've
been to the right
I've found myself in
Abudhabi, just a mirage in
the night
Been to the high, I've been
to the low
And I've been to lots of
places that I didn't wanna
go
But I ain't see nothing to
get me off my ass
And laughed at all the
jokers wanting make me walk
on glass
I could walk 'fore I could
crawl
And 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 gotta
meanstreak
Meanstreak, they call me
meanstreak
I just don't know who I
wanna be
The count of Monte Cristo or
the sheik of Arabia
I've eaten rich, and I've
eaten free
I'm the perfect culture
vulture in the face of
poverty
And I ain't met no one who
told me I got class
They say never feed the
animal, the boys got too
much flash
I'm a 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 that they call -
What's your name?
