One in Ten - UB40[00:00:00]

I am the one in ten[00:00:31]

A number on a list[00:00:32]

I am the one in ten[00:00:35]

Even though I don`t exist[00:00:36]

Nobody Knows me[00:00:39]

But I`m always there[00:00:41]

A statistical reminder[00:00:43]

Of a world that doesn`t care[00:00:44]

My arms enfold the dole queue[00:01:01]

Malnutrition dulls my hair[00:01:02]

My eyes are black and lifeless[00:01:04]

With an underprivileged stare[00:01:06]

I`m the beggar on the corner[00:01:08]

Will no-one spare a dime[00:01:09]

I`m the child that never learned to read[00:01:12]

`Cause no-one spared the time[00:01:14]

I am the one in ten[00:01:16]

A number on a list[00:01:18]

I am the one in ten[00:01:20]

Even though I don`t exist[00:01:22]

Nobody Knows me[00:01:24]

But I`m always there[00:01:26]

Statistical A reminder[00:01:28]

Of a world that doesn`t care[00:01:30]

I`m the murderer and the victim[00:01:46]

And I'm licenced with the gun[00:01:48]

I`m a sad and bruised old lady[00:01:50]

In an alley in a slum[00:01:52]

I`m a middle aged businessman[00:01:54]

With chronic heart disease[00:01:55]

I`m another teenaged suicide[00:01:57]

In a street that has no trees[00:01:59]

I am the one in ten[00:02:02]

A number on a list[00:02:03]

I am the one in ten[00:02:05]

Even though I don`t exist[00:02:07]

Nobody Knows me[00:02:09]

But I`m always there[00:02:12]

A statistical reminder[00:02:14]

Of a world that doesn`t care[00:02:15]

I`m a starving[00:02:32]

Third world mother[00:02:32]

A refugee without a home[00:02:33]

I`m a house wife hooked on Valium[00:02:35]

I`m a Pensioner alone[00:02:37]

I`m a cancer ridden spectre[00:02:39]

That's covering the earth[00:02:41]

I`m another hungry baby[00:02:42]

I`m an accident of birth[00:02:44]

I am the one in ten[00:02:46]

A number on a list[00:02:49]

I am the one in ten[00:02:51]

Even though I don`t exist[00:02:52]

Nobody Knows me[00:02:54]

But I`m always there[00:02:57]

A statistical reminder[00:02:59]

Of a world that doesn`t care[00:03:00]

I am the one in ten[00:03:18]

A number on a list[00:03:19]

I am the one in ten[00:03:21]

Even though I don`t exist[00:03:23]

Nobody Knows me[00:03:25]

But I`m always there[00:03:28]

A statistical reminder[00:03:29]

Of a world that doesn`t care[00:03:31]
