| The Jam – Man In the Corner Shop Lyrics | 9 years ago |
| 'He is jealous IS the man in the corner shop'. Not 'jealous OF' . Whole dynamic of the lyric changes. Worker in the factory wants to own a corner shop, corner shop owner wants to own a factory, factory owner smokes cigars. Fabulous social commentary, still valid 40years later, was probably valid 40years earlier. Almost brings a tear to my eye, could be sentimentality though ;-). | |
