UB40 - One In Ten - Sözleri

(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

Even though i`m always there

A statistic, a 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

Covering the earth

I`m another hungry baby

I`m an accident of birth.





(chorus)



I am the one in ten .... etc
