I'm old now (48). UB40 gave me a bit of humanity I lacked as a 20-year-old. This song especially. When I still see homeless old women and kids, this returns me to the person I am supposed to be.
Hello BowcatJukeboxxx: I think its about famine and poverty in third world countries particularly Africa that puts some blame on the 'west' due to economic inequality. Hope that helps. Cool vids BTW:-)

I thought that it was ivory madonna way back, but figured that I was mistaken, too funny.

Ivory madonna dying in the dust,
Waiting for the manna coming from the west.
Barren is her bosom, empty as her eyes,
Death a certain harvest scattered from the skies.

I thought it was prima donna until I saw the lyrics for this about a year ago. One of the best songs of the 80's. Sheer class!

Bowcat - to be honest, I thought it was Prima Donna till a few seconds ago (i.e. since release).
Thank you awfully for listing this - I am going to listen to rest of your collection now!
