Another Day In Paradise Lyrics

Performed by Phil Collins

She calls out to the man on the street
"Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere you can tell me?"

He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrassed to be there

Oh think twice, it's another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, it's just another day for you,
You and me in paradise

She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she's been crying
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
Can't walk but she's trying

Oh think twice, it's another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, it's just another day for you,
You and me in paradise

Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
Oh lord, there must be something you can say

You can tell from the lines on her face
You can see that she's been there
Probably been moved on from every place
'Cos she didn't fit in there

Oh think twice, it's another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, it's just another day for you,
You and me in paradise

great song | Reviewer: andrew | 1/14/11

...when we feel down we must think about others who are not so lucky, who have no home, or what to eat or maybe they live in war zone, or they have no legs or no hands,blind people ...and we shall see that we are in paradise even if we don't feel it ....

'Just THINK about it.......' | Reviewer: Barbara-Pearl Robson | 4/16/10

This most poignant song urges us to "THINK about it". It would b easy to FEEL tearfully sentimental/guilty & maybe drop something in the hat OR pretend not to notice ( as the lyrics say.)
Where I live I'm surrounded by homeless 'beggars' so sometimes I do one or the other. COMPASSION BURN-OUT is a very real problem... but the ROOT CAUSES of homelessness aren't going away.....
I DO believe the answer is to THINK more; get together with other people & organizations.. SPEAK to The Homeless themselves & invite THEIR ideas and pass-on INFORMATION we've gathered too.
We have to JOIN FORCES - ALL of us. There is no "paradise" for us whilst blatant INJUSTICE exists.

I am a very emotional person, and this type of awarness bothers me! Everytime I hear a song like that(and I've heard a lot because my idol is Michael Jackson) I cry because I know this things happen! I wish we could do something to change it ! And btw this song is wonderful really maked me think about it!

When I first heard this song (like a hundred years ago and not familiar with english)I thought it was about a young prostitute asking for change, but now (Im still struggling with this language) it might not be. This way it makes less impact on me but still its an impact. Good song.

A Great Song | Reviewer: Ender | 10/23/07

This is a beautifully written song. I don't know if Phil Collins wrote it or not, but if he did then he should write more music in this vein. The only songs that matter are songs that try to increase social awareness.
If you enjoyed this song, you might like "Stole" by Kelly Rowland, "How to Save a Life" by the Frey or "Brother, can you spare a dime" by Bing Crosby.
