Whiniest Lyrics Ever?
It's time for the left to get a new anthem. After years of marching to the strains of 'The International' it got moldy and has fallen out of fashion. Lately Give Peace a Chance has been making a comeback but let's face it, that song is played. In order to help out my brethern on the other side of the political divide I suggest they adopt the song 'What About Me?', a 1982 hit by Australian super group Moving Pictures. It speaks to the core values of the left; victimhood and the redistribution of resources.
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?
