Let me take you for a ride
far away from the upper side
we´re going down to the mean street

Johnny´s got a brand new 38
he thinks it´s gonna cure his hate
Ah it´s all done in the mean street

It´s the state of grace

and It´s all done in the mean street

Take my hand and close your pretty eyes
cus it´s gonna hurt so much when summer hits
New Nork sky
oh no, it´s all done in the mean street

God I love this stormy cloud
Where all nasty girls they like it loud
It´s all good in the mean streets

Diane had her grand debut here
Michael couldn´t even tell if it was
pleasure or fear
It´s all done in the mean street

and It´s my little state of grace

It goes down in the mean street

Take my hand and close your pretty eyes
cus it´s gonna hurt so much when summer hits
New York sky
oh no, it´s all done in the mean street

The heights, the sights, the green, the
scarred
the easy way of doing everything hard,
the fashion
Oh I hate that street with... passion

Take my hand and close your pretty eyes
cus it´s gonna hurt so much when summer hits
New York sky
oh no, it´s all done in the mean street
it´s all done in the mean street
it´s all done in the mean street
