One In Ten (Unplugged) - UB40/Ali/Astro & Mickey[00:00:00]
Written by:UB40[00:00:01]
I am the one in ten[00:00:17]
A number on a list[00:00:19]
I am the one in ten[00:00:21]
Even though I don't exist[00:00:23]
Nobody knows me[00:00:25]
But I'm always there[00:00:27]
A statistic a reminder[00:00:28]
Of a world that doesn't care[00:00:30]
My arms enfold the dole queue[00:00:46]
Malnutrition dulls my hair[00:00:48]
My eyes are black and lifeless[00:00:50]
With an underprivileged stare[00:00:52]
I'm the beggar on the corner[00:00:53]
Will no one spare a dime[00:00:55]
I'm the child that never learns to read[00:00:57]
'Cause no one spared the time[00:01:00]
I am the one in ten[00:01:02]
A number on a list[00:01:03]
I am the one in ten[00:01:05]
Even though I don't exist[00:01:07]
Nobody knows me[00:01:09]
But I'm always there[00:01:11]
A statistic a reminder[00:01:13]
Of a world that doesn't care[00:01:15]
I'm the murderer and the victim[00:01:31]
The licence with the gun[00:01:32]
I'm a sad and bruised old lady[00:01:34]
In an ally in a slum[00:01:36]
I'm a middle aged businessman[00:01:38]
With chronic heart disease[00:01:40]
I'm another teenaged suicide[00:01:42]
In a street that has no trees[00:01:44]
I am the one in ten[00:01:46]
A number on a list[00:01:48]
I am the one in ten[00:01:50]
Even though I don't exist[00:01:51]
Nobody knows me[00:01:54]
But I'm always there[00:01:56]
A statistic a reminder[00:01:58]
Of a world that doesn't care[00:01:59]
I'm a starving third world mother[00:02:15]
A refugee without a home[00:02:17]
I'm a house wife hooked on valium[00:02:19]
I'm a pensioner alone[00:02:21]
I'm a cancer ridden spectre[00:02:22]
Covering the earth[00:02:24]
I'm another hungry baby[00:02:26]
I'm an accident of birth[00:02:29]
I am the one in ten[00:02:31]
A number on a list[00:02:33]
I am the one in ten[00:02:34]
Even though I don't exist[00:02:36]
Nobody knows me[00:02:38]
But I'm always there[00:02:40]
A statistic a reminder[00:02:42]
Of a world that doesn't care[00:02:44]
I am the one in ten[00:03:00]
A number on a list[00:03:02]
I am the one in ten[00:03:04]
Even though I don't exist[00:03:06]
Nobody knows me[00:03:08]
But I'm always there[00:03:10]
A statistic a reminder[00:03:12]
Of a world that doesn't care[00:03:13]
