Man On The Corner

Genesis

See the lonely man there on the corner, 
What he's waiting for, I don't know, 
But he waits everyday now. 
He's just waiting for something to show. 

And nobody knows him, 
And nobody cares, 
'Cos there's no hiding place, 
There's no hiding place - for you. 

Looking everywhere at no one, 
He sees everything and nothing at all - oh. 
When he shouts nobody listens, 
Where he leads no one will go - oh. 

He's a lonely man, there on the corner, 
What he's waiting for, I don't know, 
But he waits everyday now. 
He's just waiting for something to show - oh. 

Nobody knows him, 
And nobody cares, 
'Cos there's no hiding place, 
There's no hiding place - for you and me. 

Are we just like all the rest, 
We're looking too hard for something he's got 
Or moving too fast to rest. 
But like a monkey on your back you need it. 
But do you love it enough to leave it - ah. 

Just like the lonely man there on the corner, 
What he's waiting for, I don't know - oh. 
But he waits every day now. 
He's just waiting for that something to show - oh. 

Who's the lonely man there on the corner, 
What he's waiting for, I don't know. 
But he's there every day now. 
And he's just waiting for something to show - oh. 

Who's the lonely man there on the corner, 
What he's waiting for, I don't know. 
Oh but he waits every day now. 
He's just waiting for that something to show
