 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 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
 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
 (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
