One in Five - Youth Brigade/Shawn Stern

I want to make a difference;

I want to see real change

They talk but it's all hot air

Little things get rearranged sure I

Know that they're basically the same

Careerist playing power games

Just trying to make a name

We only want what's best for you

Best for you

Trust in us and we'll get you through

Get you through

They say they represent you and me

What kind of majority is 1 in 5

1 in 5 1 in 5 1 in 5

I want to make that difference;

I want to show I care

No matter how I try

I've a sinking feeling I'm going nowhere

Call this democracy it's a lie

Sure it's nothing new

But we let them screw us all the time

They keep telling us they know what's best

Know what's best

We're too disgusted to give a shit

Give a shit

The only real change must come from us

Who's represented by 1 in 5

1 in 5 1 in 5 1 in 5

I want to make that difference to really truly care

What's the point of voting

When they give us assholes all the time

And money controls it all

As they say the majority is always on their side

They keep telling us they know what's best

Know what's best

We're too disgusted to give a shit

Give a shit

The only real change must come from us

Who's represented by 1 in 5

1 in 5 1 in 5 1 in 5

1 in 5 1 in 5 1 in 5

1 in 5

They keep telling us they know what's best

Know what's best

We're too disgusted to give a shit

Give a shit

But the only real change must come from us

Who's represented by 1 in 5
