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
|
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 they whisper
|
What about me...
|
|
Now I´m standing on the corner of the world´s gone home
|
Nobody´s changed, no body´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 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
|
But you just take more
|
But you just take more than you give
|
What about me
|
What about me
|
What about me...
|
