One In A Million
(written by Guns 'N Roses)
Yeah, I needed, a time to get away
I needed some peace of mind now, peace of mind that would stay
Got away from the robbers, they told us all lies
Left them there to dig their own graves now, left them there to die
Your police and n******, that's right, get out of my way
I don't need to buy none of your gold chains today
I don't need thick bracelets, clamped around my chest
Just wanna live my own life now, just to do my best
(chorus)
You're one in a million, yeah that's what you are
You're one in a million baby, you're a shooting star
Maybe one day we'll see you, and 'cos you rule our lives
We always will do your work now, you're the star up high
Immigrants and f*****s, they make no sense to me
They come to our countries, and think they'll do as they please
Like start some mini-Iran, or spread some stinking disease
They talk so many g******** ways now, it's all wrong to me
Well some say I'm wrong now, others say that's just me
Some don't like our songs now, I guess it'll always be
It's been such a long, long, time yeah, a'since I knew right from wrong
It's all just a means to and end now, I keep a'moving along
(chorus)
instrumental break
(chorus)
Zionists and turn-coat racists, don't point your finger at me
I'm just a small-time White boy, trying to make ends meet
Don't need strange religions, don't idolise TV
Just making my living baby, that's enough for me
(chorus)
Yeah the star up high
Yeah you're the star up high
Wasted Life
Saw you step out from Room 209
Smile on your face, and a teardrop in your eye
Knew you'd been sticking needles in your arm
You always said that it didn't do no harm
Looked into your eyes, and what did I see?
Misery and despair looking back at me
Yours once was a face, full of new hope
Now you're down on your knees, and you just can't cope
(chorus)
One more day, then a long tormented night
One more day, in another wasted life
Sometimes it may seem better how you are
Escaping from reality, from poverty and war
You have seen your country, invaded and possessed
They treat you and your countrymen, worse than all these guests
But really there is no excuse for doing what you do
Living in a dream world, leave the fighting to the few
To waste your life like this, must surely be a crime?
I'll tell you at the moment you're a dreadful waste of time
(chorus)
