"Man on the Corner" is a 1981 song by British band Genesis, released as a single on 5 March 1982. The song was written by Phil Collins. It peaked at No. 41 on the UK Singles Chart〔(Genesis UK chart history ), The Official Charts Company. Retrieved 18 May 2012.〕 and No. 40 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100. ==Lyrics== The lyrics describe a man who spends his days on a street corner, shouting at passersby. According to the radio show In the Studio with Redbeard (which spotlighted the making of the ''Abacab'' album), the song was composer Collins' first song about the homeless epidemic and society's reluctance to help the homeless or find a resolution. Backed by a simple drum machine beat, the song takes a musically dark tone. Near the end of the 1980s, Collins would revisit the theme of homelessness in "Another Day in Paradise". This song makes a prominent feature of the Roland CR-78 drum machine at the beginning, then switches to a drum set during the bridge while the drum machine continues to run in the background throughout the entire song.
