Verse
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
Chorus
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
Verse 2
Well there's a pretty girl serving at the counter of a 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
Bridge
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
Chorus
(Chords same as verses)
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
