lyrics

I broke my last twenty, I broke my last ten,
I broke my last five, now I'm broke again,
I had to draw twenty people but I only drew two,
Singin' on the corner cuz the gig fell through

I could paint myself silver, or paint myself gold,
or paint on a smile make balloon animals,
I could bang on a bucket or a didgeridoo
but I'm singin on the corner cuz the gig fell through

Best comes to best, this goes perfectly right,
and I can learn to laugh about the way I felt that night.
Worst comes to worst, this goes horribly wrong,
and becomes another verse in another stupid song.

I went home for Christmas to see everyone,
My Mom said, “Tim, you're lookin like a bum.
Shave off the beard, get a job interview.”
I'm singin on the corner cuz the gig fell through.

I got a Volkswagon bus, I sleep in the back,
but I don't drive much cuz it eats up gas,
I'm stuck in the city like the shit on my shoe.
Singin' on the corner cuz the gig fell through.

Best comes to best, this goes perfectly right,
and I can learn to laugh about the way I felt that night.
Worst comes to worst, this goes horribly wrong,
and becomes another verse in another stupid song.

So I say hey to a man and a son
and the man says, “Man do you know Neil Young?”
So I played “Old Man,” and man, it felt true,
Singin on that corner cuz the gig fell through.

Best comes to best, this goes perfectly right,
and I can learn to laugh about the way I felt that night.
Worst comes to worst, this goes horribly wrong,
and becomes another verse in another stupid song.
