What About Me

There's a little boy waiting at the counter of the corner shop
He's been waiting down there
Waiting half the day
We never ever see him from the top
He gets pushed around
Knocked to the ground
But he gets to his feet and he says...

What about me
It isn't fair
I've had enough now I want my share
Can't you see
I wanna live
But you just take more then you give.

There's a pretty girl serving at the counter of the corner shop.
She's been waiting back there
Waiting for her dreams
Her dreams walk in and out they never stop
Well she's not too proud
To cry out loud
She runs to the street and she screams.

What about me
It isn't fair
I've had enough now I want my share
Can't you see
I wanna live
But you just take more then you give.

So take a step back and see the little people
They may be young
But they're the ones who need to be people be
So listen as they whisper
What about me.

Now I'm standing on the corner all the world's gone home
Nobody's changed
Nobody's been saved
And I'm feeling cold and alone.

I guess I'm lucky
I start a lot
But sometimes I wish for more
Than I've got...

What about me
It isn't fair
I've had enough now I want my share
Can't you see
I wanna live
But you just take more what about me.

It isn't fair
I've had enough now I want my share
Can't you see
I wanna live
But you just take more
You just take more
You just take more then you give.

What about me
What about me
What about me...
