What About Me

There's a little boy waitin' at the counter of the corner shop He's been waitin' 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 wasn't my share Can't you see I wanna live But you just take more then you give There's a pretty girl standing at the counter of the corner shop She's been waitin' back there Waitin' for her dreams Her dreams walk in and I begged 'em to 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 wasn't 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 make the big people big 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 smile a lot But sometimes I wish for more Then I go What about me It isn't fair I've had enough now I wasn't 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
