There's a man standin' on the corner
With a sign sayin' Will Work For Food
You know the man
You see him every mornin'
The one you never give your money to
You can sit there with your window rolled up
Wonderin' when the lights goin' to turn green
Never knowin' what a couple more bucks
In his pocket might mean
What if he's an angel sent here from Heaven
And he's makin' certain that you're doin' your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother, are you gonna pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Tryin' to forget what you saw in his face
Knowin' deep down it could have been his savin' grace
What if he's an angel
There's a man
And there's a woman
Livin' right above you in Apartment G
There's a lot of noise comin' from the ceilin'
And it don't sound like harmony
You can sit there with your TV turned up
While the words and his anger fly
But come tomorrow when you see her with her shades on
Can you look her in the eye
What if she's an angel sent here from Heaven
And she's makin' certain that you're doin' your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother, are you gonna pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Tryin' to forget what you saw in her face
Knowin' deep down it could have been her savin' grace
What if she's an angel
A little girl on Daddy's lap
Hidin' her disease with a baseball cap
You can turn the channel
Most people do
But what if you were sittin' in her Daddy's shoes
Maybe she's an angel sent here from Heaven
With a sign sayin' Will Work For Food
