Street smart- (w lyrics in info)

Definately my favorite song from the david copperfield cartoon- Mr. mealy potatoes teaching David how to "read the streets" you gotta be street smart you know- =3

Lyrics:

Mealy:

Listen to me-
If you wanna get along in the city,
you gotta be pretty shrewd,
suddenly you learn the ropes lil brother
its all in your attitude,
See the way I strut and I swagger,
show em all you're sharp as a dagger,
let em know you own this town,
Cuz you cant back down,
and run my pet,
cant let them see you sweat,

you gotta be street smart,
quick and sly,
and street smart,
you wanna get by
on your street smarts
dont be shy,
be street smart,
before they tear you apart,

let em know you got your own way a walking,
your own way a talking tough,
If you wanna make em shake lil brother
you cant be a powder puff,
never find ya flinching or flutter, (im not really sure what they say here I was guessin)
you'll find yourself in the gutter,
When they try to crush your toes,
and steal your clothes,
and eat your bread,
just keep one step ahead
you gotta be street smart
quick and sly and street smart,
you wanna get by
with your street smarts!

...is there a way to get the mp3 of this song? I'm finding myself looping the vid online, but can't do that when I'm out of the house.

I'd forgotten how much I loved the music from this movie.

[Hypotheticalsuicide]

All I did to get this song (an mp3) is I recorded it from youtube using a microphone and goldwave (or some other recording software) then I put my mic to the speakers while it played and hit record =3 now I have this song on my ipod along with the others

I have searched and scoured the internet forever to find this source of this vague memory... thank you.

So the dog here is Mealy, voiced by "Bobby's World" creator Howie Mandel? He looked better in the earlier 1990's than he does now.
