What About Me

What about me

Well 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 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 than you give

Well 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 than you give

So take a step back and see the little people

They may be young but they re the ones that make the big people big

So listen as the whisper

What about me?

Now i m standing on the corner all the worlds 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 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 than you give

What about me

What about me

What about me
