What About Me ? - Moving Pictures

Well there's a little boy waiting at the counter of the 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 a dream, 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

More than you give...

Take a step back and see the little people They might 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

What about me? What about me? What about....me?
