Mean Street

Get up
Hey you, dontcha know where you are
Hey everybody
Representing River City
Tonight's act is the one, the only, River City Girls
Everybody make some noise
Let's run this

You with the side-eye staring like you're down for a fight
Wannabe tough guys glaring on my left and my right
Left to our own devices in this rough-ridin' town
The streets are mean so we'll be meaner
Is the answer we found
Stay punchin', poundin' out suckers, cause a ruckus with the riff-raff
Hunting down the out-of-luckers, greet ya with a stiff laugh
Drop your cash, whiplash, time to make a quick dash
Stop to thrash around a little
Right hook, kick, smash the
Betting game liars with the
Ready, aim, fire kinda poker face
I ain't convinced, you're uninspired
Spiked bat to your tire baby, how bout that
Just shy of going haywire at the fools who shout back
If peace n' quiet's your desire then you're probably alone
Haven't 'cha heard? We in River City, hands will get thrown
Make believe that we above it but if they ain't kind
We'll take that attitude shove it where the sun don't shine, ya know

Ain't no damsels in distress
That's right, baby, we bring the mess
These streets are mean but we stay pretty
That's how we roll in River City

Hey Mister Tough, looking for a fisticuff
Just enough to piss me off I can't resist to brawl until our wrists are cuffed
It's who we are, it's the beast I became
Ready to spar with any nice guy or jerk all the same
Could be a game or a lifestyle, depending on who views it
Addicted to the "beat" and I ain't only talking music
Askin' us to prove it? Well we just did
So dontcha give us any lip unless you wanna get it busted
Strangers can't be trusted, but neither can I
When you're in danger every day it's either live or let die
Knuckle sandwiches are flying, have ya lunch with these rhymes
It's all about comedic timing when delivering punch lines
We're livin' in such times, but we still look good
It just don't feel right without a little
Trouble in my neighborhood
So you can save your "good intentions," I got doubts
But it's something you could mention while I'm knocking your lights out

Ain't no damsels in distress
That's right, baby, we bring the mess
These streets are mean but we stay pretty
That's how we roll in River City

Hey! Hey, you! Yeah you over there
You wanna come a little closer and say that
Meet me out in front of the ferris wheel, fool
You know where the heck you are? This is River City, baby
C'mon, let's go
Things about to get just a little chaotic

Ain't no damsels in distress
Yeah, alright
That's right, baby, we bring the mess
Hey, hey
These streets are mean but we stay pretty
Yeah, no doubt
That's how we roll in River City
Dontcha ever forget
