Lyrics One in Ten

A number on a list even though I don't exist
Nobody knows me but I'm always there
Statistic, 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
'Cos no-one spared the time
A number on a list even though I don't exist
Nobody knows me but I'm always there
Statistic, reminder of a world that doesn't care
I'm the murderer and victim
I'm the license 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 teenage suicide in streets that has no trees
A number on a list even though I don't exist
Nobody knows me but I'm always there
Statistic, reminder of a world that doesn't care
I'm a starving third world mother
Refugee without a home
I'm a house wife hooked on Valium
I'm a Pensioner alone
I'm a cancer ridden specter that's covering the earth
I'm another hungry baby
I'm an accident of birth
A number on a list even though I don't exist
Nobody knows me but I'm always there
Statistic, reminder of a world that doesn't care
A number on a list even though I don't exist
Nobody knows me but I'm always there
Statistic, reminder of a world that doesn't care
