I'd call it soft rock-
The lyrics were something like this:
"well there's a little boy standing at the counter of the corner shop.
He's been waiting down there, waiting half the day but 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..."
I'm not even sure of the title, it might be "more than you give." I think it's late '80's or early '90's.
This is driving me crazy.
Anyone remember it?

artist: Shannon Noll lyrics
title: What About Me
album: That's What I'm Talking About
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]

Humm.... I know the song - I always liked it. I am singing it right now... but I can't think for the life of me who the guy was that sang it.
Sorry,
but IM still trying to figure it out.

I LOVE this song!
It's by Moving Pictures, called "What About Me", or at least, I think so.
I'm so glad someone else knows this song, too.
