Well there's a little boy
waiting at the counter
of a corner shop
He's been waiting
down there,
waiting half the day
They never ever see
him from the top
He gets pushed around,
knocked to the ground
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 they whisper
What about me
And 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
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
Don'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...
