Graham Bonnet Band - 08 - Man On The Corner

Lyrics:
London West 1, 8am Monday morning
It's overcoat cold with a winter wind chill
I'm heading out, to measure the start of the day
Those good morning smiles have nothing to say
Taxi's roll by sounding like satisfied cats
The sound quickly dies, when someone waves them down
That city man waits on the same corner. same time each day
He shouts a command but the cars drive away
Pre-Chorus:
He's always waiting there
Chorus:
Nobody seems to see him
Nobody wants to hear him
He's alone, standing in the rain
And in the heat of summer
Still waiting, going nowhere
On his own
Impeccably dressed, at least that's the way he appeared
On closer look his suit was well worn
His shirt collar torn
His face wore a 5 o'clock shade
Umbrella was wrapped, like a bat in a cage
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Bridge:
Maybe sometime ago his days were much clearer
All the same nothing's changed
How could it be over
He lost his way sometime ago somewhere
His military pose tells the story of his past
Too proud to fall
Now his pockets are empty
He stands by the road
Someday he'll get that ride
