Mean Streak

I'm the smile in the corner
I'm the friend, I'm the shoulder
I'm always the strong one that everybody leans on
I'm the hey she'll be fine with that
Bendin over backwards, I'm an acrobat
I'm the one takin the blame if anything goes wrong

   I'm holdin my tongue and I'm holdin my temper
   And I'm doin my best to be sweet
   Rigt now I hope to kill em with kindness
   But all I feel comin on is a mean streak

I don't want the fame, I don't need the glory
But I would like a little respect
At the end of the day, at the end of the story
What you want just aint what you get

   I'm holdin my tongue and I'm holdin my temper
   And I'm doin my best to be sweet
   Rigt now I hope to kill em with kindness
   But all I feel comin on is a mean streak

These are fightin tears, these are fightin words
Some I've never said, some you've never heard
So I'm standin up and I'm shoutin out
I've had enough

   I'm holdin my tongue and I'm holdin my temper
   And I'm doin my best to be sweet
   Rigt now I hope to kill em with kindness
   But all I feel comin on is a mean streak

I'm the smile in the corner
I'm the friend, I'm the shoulder
I'm always the strong one that everybody leans on
