This brings to mind several years ago , when the buses congregated at the Square , alot of winos , et al. that used to hang out down there. I was headed to school once , and this guy is standing on the corner singing 'Only the Strong Survive' , directed at all passers by. I think some of them sing to convey a message , others for artistic reasons , and others solely for financial gain.
