the hoosiers - one born every minute lyrics
[opening]
born again, and one day old
an untold story to unfold
i could be prime minister
and turn my country i wish i
nothing quite as sinister
as all she’s ever seen
[verse 1]
but i like the look of that movie scene
picture myself with a beauty queen
is there something you’re not telling me?
something wrong with what you’ve fed to me?
today i saw my father cry
he wondered what she’d fed to me
it made me cry to see him weak
he told me dreams were meant for sleep
and turned his back, looked to the sky
raised his arms and asked me why
[chorus]
there’s one born every minute?
there’s one born every minute
why do you have to aim so high?
there’s no safety net
if you fall, you’ll die
one born every minute
[verse 2]
the world is such a pretty place
with your pretty wife and your pretty face
i flew to hollywood last night
they told me “boy, your face ain’t right”
my beauty queen from a time ago
no i don’t think she loved me at all
so i turned my back, looked to the sky
raised my arms and asked you why
[chorus]
there’s one born every minute?
there’s one born every minute
why do you have to run so fast?
learn to live like me
watch life go past
one born every minute
why do you have to aim so high?
there’s no safety net
if you fall, you’ll die
[verse 3]
oh moon please be gentle
with my fragile hopes and dreams
it was only yesterday
that i was brought onto this scene
if it’s all the same to you
i think i’ll go now but return
being born yesterday
gives me a lot to learn
gives me a lot to learn
[conclusion]
i will change the world
but maybe not today
i will change the world
but maybe not today
i will change the world
but maybe not today
i will change the world
but maybe not today
i will change the world
one born every minute
one born every minute
one born every minute
one born every minute
