Here's where I got “I say what I mean and I mean what I say," from the Popeye song, I'm Mean

I'm Mean

Lyrics from the soundtrack album. May vary from lyrics in film.

I'm mean I'm mean I'm mean
Ya know what I mean
He's mean he's mean
Ya know what I say
He's says he's mean
Ya know what I mean
He's mean he's mean

Mean
He's mean he's mean
Ya know what I mean
He's mean he's mean
I say what I mean
That's true that's true
I mean what I say
He do he do

I'm so mean I had a dream of beatin' myself up
I broke my nose I broke my hand I wrestled myself to the ground and then
Choked myself to death then broke the choke and woke up

That's how mean I'm mean I'm mean
Ya know what I mean
He's mean he's mean
I practically lost
The fight of his life
And it took me all night
All night all night
But I came out all right
All right all right
Because I'm so mean

I'm mean
He's mean he's mean
Ya know what I mean
He's mean he's mean
I mean that I'm mean
He's mean he's mean
I mean what I say
He's mean he's mean
Ya know what I mean
He's mean he's mean
I'm meaner than spit
That's it that's it
I'm meaner than [here he gets drowned out by crowd]
That's it that's it
I'm meaner than mean
He's mean he's mean

[spoken by someone]
He pauses for a moment
Looks around, picks up a tiger
And completely demolishes a whole building
With one puff

[back to the song]
I'm mean
He's mean he's mean
Ya know what I mean
He's mean he's mean
If you know what I mean
He says he's mean
If you know what I mean
He says he's mean

He's mean he's mean
[repeat]

Ah yes.

Very good research.

.

But the song was sung by Bluto. Those are his words.

(Loved the show, by the way!)
