Lyrics of Man on the Corner - 2007 Remaster by Genesis
chorus
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 someone to show
verse
And nobody knows him
And nobody cares
'Cause there's no hiding place
There's no hiding place, for you
verse
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
chorus
He's a lonely man, there on the corner
What he's waiting for, I don't know
But he waits everyday now
And he's just waiting for something to show, oh
verse
Nobody knows him
And nobody cares
'Cause there's no hiding place
There's no hiding place, for you and me
verse
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
chorus
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
chorus
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
chorus
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
Writer(s): Phil Collins
