歌词
Phil Collins
Another Day In Paradise

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 just 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...

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...

国内一个比较流行的观点是，穷是因为懒，不值得同情

不敢苟同啊。
诚然有人因为懒而穷，但大部分所谓的懒其实是无法弥补的出身不平等而导致的破罐子破摔。我看到的大部分贫穷还是因为出身不平等，由此受到的教育不平等，得到的机会也不平等。在中国，能生于大城市，是我们幸运而已，我们的成就（如果有成就的话），大部分也只是因为我们出生在城市。在德国，你看看你那些德国同学，有几个爹娘是普通工人的？
