One In Ten lyrics
Song information
Artist: Ub40 Album: Live
Lyrics
(Chorus) I am the one in ten A number on a list I am the one in ten Even though I don't exist Nobody knows me But i'm always there A statistical reminder Of a world that doesn't care
My arms enfold the dole queue Malnutrition dulls my hair My eyes are black and lifeless With an underprivileged stare I'm the beggar on the corner Will no-one spare a dime? I'm the child that never learns to read 'Cause no-one spared the time
(Chorus)
I am the one in ten .... etc
I'm the murderer and the victim The licence with the gun I'm a sad and bruised old lady In an ally in a slum I'm a middle aged businessman With chronic heart disease I'm another teenaged suicide In a street that has no trees
(Chorus)
I am the one in ten .... etc
I'm a starving third world mother A refugee without a home I'm a house wife hooked on valium I'm a pensioner alone I'm a cancer ridden spectre Discovering the earth I'm another hungry baby I'm an accident of birth
(Chorus)
I am the one in ten .... etcx2
