When I was young, I was told I’d find

One rich man in ten has a satisfied mind

And I’m the one

100 to one says I wouldn’t react

But I’m the 1 in 100 who will swing right back

Yes I’m the one

Thousands of steps and staircases to climb

Thousands of men you’d most likely decline

And yet I’m the one

10,000 to 1: could I possibly bet?

I’m compelled by your love and I haven’t lost yet

Clearly you’re the one

One in a million don’t mean what it meant

And these millions of gold coins won’t gleam when they’re spent

And you’re left with none

Ten million dollars could win the whole lot

But if ten million dollars is all that you got

You won’t be the one

Hundreds of millions of papers to sign

Hundreds of millions of souls left behind

And yet we’re the ones

A billion to one: don’t the odds make you sick?

To be one in a billion’s a terrible trick

You’re the wretched one
