One Thing Lyrics


One Thing
(Cunniff/Glaser/Schellenbach/Trimble)

Something wrong’s goin’ on today…
People with nothing getting thrown away
Too much blood spilled by diseased minds
Filled with fear, yeah they’re all filled with fear
So many broken faces
Everywhere I look
Killing of spirits people hold the power
Lights in their eyes have been
Turned off for so long

Everybody, everybody’s tryin’ to make a dollar
Made marvin scream

Made him wanna holler
This ain’t livin’…it’s just surviving
Don’t you know, this ain’t livin’
It’s just surviving

One thing I know for sure is
That…
Something just ain’t right

That man with no home
Was once a baby
A little baby
That lady with no home
Can’t remember
How she got there

So afraid of what you can’t understand
Try harder to comprehend
Feelings of guilt keep pouring down
Deny deny it will eat you up inside
