    Lyrics:Ub40 Music:Ub40
    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
