Another Day In Paradise
Phil CollinsShe calls out to the man on the
'Sir, can you me?
It's and I've to ,
Is there you can tell me?'
He walks on, doesn't look back
He he can't hear her
Starts to as he the street
Seems to be there
Oh think twice,
it's another day for you and me in paradise
Oh think twice,
'cause it's just another day for you,
You and me in paradise, think about it
She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she's been
She's got on the of her feet
She can't but she's trying
Oh think twice,
'cause 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, think about it
Oh Lord, is there nothing more can do
Oh Lord, there must be something you can
You can tell from the on her face
You can see that she's been there
Probably been on from every place
'Cause she didn't in there
Oh think twice,
'cause 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,
just think about it, think about it
It's just another day
for you and me in paradise
It's just another day
for you and me in paradise, paradise
Just it, paradise, just think about it
Paradise, paradise, paradise
It is a protest song.
Collins sings the song from a third-person perspective, observing as a man crosses the street to ignore a homeless woman, and he implores listeners not to turn a blind eye to homelessness because, by drawing a religious allusion, "it's just another day for you and me in paradise". Collins also appeals directly to God by singing: "Oh Lord, is there nothing more anybody can do? Oh Lord, there must be something you can say?"
