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
|
|
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
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
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
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
