anybody remember this classic 80's song? 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... *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? Moving Pictures-What About Me Check it out ...Shiny Toy Guns R gonna blowup VERY soon and bring melody back to music..you heard it here 1st! http://www.myspacecomment...theone.mp3 | |

I remember it, and I'd rather not. One of the whiniest choruses ever. | |

Moving Pictures-What About Me lol most Aussies will know the song (although I wonder how many of them will remember the original version ) our first Australian Idol runner-up Shannon Noll did a version of it (it was his first single and by far his most successful) you'll most often hear a groan from most of us lol coz he absolutely crucified it I still love the original version but can't bear to hear it anymore coz Shannon Noll wrecked it lol | |

It was also featured in Kath and Kim, during a traumatic scene where Sharon's watches Mark talking to another girl in a pub.. Life it ain't real funky unless you got that orgPop. | |
