Corner Store - Brazilian Girls

Around the corner a different world

Conversation overheard ohhhh

Between a man and a saxophone

Saxophone and mister drunk and stoned ohhh

He only knows one melody

You know which one I mean

I drop some change in his hat and leave.

Walk into the corner store

Through neon signs and revolving doors.

ohooh

As if just to add to the atmosphere

The man behind the counter has a snow white beard

That goes all the way down to the floor

I like the music on the radio

You know which one I mean

And this is how it goes: Da da, da da, da da da

(Horns playing)

Outside on the public phone

There he is again.

Mister drunk and stoned

He’s got no money but a golden smile

Sidewalk torero wave me by ohhhh

I’m whistling his melody

You know which one I mean

Suddenly he stops playing

And looks at me

And the band goes Da da, da da, da da da

(Horns playing) Humming
