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.
