Joe Jackson (born David Ian Jackson, 11 August 1954) is an English musician and singer-songwriter now living in Berlin, whose five Grammy Award nominations span from 1979 to 2001. He is probably best known for the 1979 hit song and first single "Is She Really Going Out with Him?", which still gets extensive US FM radio airplay; for his 1982 hit, "Steppin' Out"; and for his 1984 success with "You Can't Get What You Want (Till You Know What You Want)". He was popular for his pop/rock and New Wave music early on before moving to more eclectic, though less commercially successful, pop/jazz/classical hybrids. more »

See the guy in the corner
The one who's drinking another glass
There's a look in his eye
That I've seen so many times in the past
I've seen it in the mirror
And I've seen it in my friends
When we realize we've lost ourselves
And we try to make amends
He'll drink another two or three
And the room will start to spin
Then he'll try to let the feelings show
But he'll find he can't give in
You remember what your brother said
Remember what your brother said
"I'll tell the whole class if I see you"
You remember what your mother said
Remember what your mother said
"Never be a man if you do"
See the guy in the corner
Putting out another cigarette
Maybe someone is dying
From something that they can't cure yet
Maybe a lover is cheating
Maybe a lover just left
But somethings gone, maybe forever
And it's something that he can't forget
You remember what your brother said
