"Mean Machine" is a song by American rock band Sugar Ray.

It was released as the lead single from the band's debut album, Lemonade and Brownies.

[1] Biographer Anna Louise Golden described the song as "ruthlessly fast metal" with electronic accents from DJ Lethal.

The song's musical style blended British-style hard rock and heavy metal with American rockabilly elements.

Golden said the song was "too heavy and fast" to be a bigger chart hit at the time.
