A Simple Http Alternative for Wireshark

In web development, I usually use Firebug. But now I have to use Wireshark to track the Http requests sent by the Android simulator. Wireshark is a fantastic tool, however it is too thick for what I am doing and it is quite painful to copy / paste the request.

So I'm looking for a simpler alternative for Linux Ubuntu.

Wireshark is mostly bloated due to the GUI; however, it has a text version called tshark, which uses substantially less memory ... the syntax is very similar to tcpdump...

tshark -n -i eth0 tcp and host 192.168.12.14 and port 80
