Well there's a little boy 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 feet and he says
[CHORUS:] What about me, it isn't I've had enough now i want my share Can't you see i wanna live But you just more than you give
Well there's a pretty girl serving 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 runs to the street and she screams
[CHORUS]
So take a step back and see the people They may be young but they're the ones That make the people big So listen, as they whisper What about me
And now i'm standing on the corner the world's gone home Nobody's changed, nobody's been saved And i'm feeling cold and alone guess i'm lucky, i smile a lot But sometimes i wish for more than i've got
