There was a corner - it was the place to go We used to meet there - doing our whiz and blow I had a friend there - she was a wasted space She tried to match me - she couldn't stay the pace She was a no one She was a loser She had you ooo ooo - she had you She had you ooo ooo - she had you I couldn't stand it - seeing you there with her I never told you - how much it really hurt I went to college - I got a fancy car Drop dead apartment - now I'm a shining star But she never made it She's selling Avon She had you ooo ooo - she had you (3x) I have respect now - I always knew I would 'Cause I had a passport - out of the neighborhood And when I go back - I always see her there I ask how she's doing - not that I really care She's still on the corner She's still going nowhere
