Well he opens his eyes thinking Maybe today will be different... Hoping some way that somehow Something has changed... But there's nothing to eat once again And no sign of his sister... And the sky opens up and the bombs They fall down just like rain... What he needs is... One good day in a row Somewhere to start, somewhere to go He needs One good day in a row... One good day in a row... From her window she watches the cars As they move down the highway... Heading off to the places she'll never see... Any means to an end isn't hard to defend When you're fifteen... And you're left all alone With three mouths to feed... What she needs is... One good day in a row Somewhere to start, somewhere to go She needs One good day in a row... One good day in a row... And it's easy to say when you've taken the day That all you gotta do is try But don't you remember But for some saving grace...go you and I... And the powers that be they pretend But they're not really listening To anything or anybody but themselves Riding mighty and high on the power of privilege... And they're so far removed from the ones Who don't share the wealth The ones who need just... One good day in a row Somewhere to start, somewhere to go They need One good day in a row... One good day in a row... Somewhere to start, somewhere to go They need One good day in a row...
