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. [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/brazilian_girls/corner_store.html ]
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
Hes got no money but a golden smile
Sidewalk torero wave me by ohhhh
Im 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
