Why Can’t You be Nicer to Me? Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Somebody's screaming
Looking at the ceiling, oh!
Everything's so funny
I don't have any money, oh!
People don't even know me
But they know how to show me, oh!
[Chorus]
Why can't you be nicer to me?
[Verse 2]
My pride is dying
I think I'm all done lying, oh!
Nobody's sharing
So I stopped caring, oh!
All alone and walking
Nobody's talking, oh!
[Chorus]
Why can't you be nicer to me?
[Verse 3]
Well, the wind is blowing
Where am I going?
Oh!
Off a bridge and falling
Nobody's calling, oh!
On the ground and laying
Nobody's praying, oh!
Somebody's screaming
Looking at the ceiling, oh!
Everything's so funny
I don't have any money, oh!
People don't even know me
But they know how to show me, oh!
[Chorus]
Why can't you be nicer to me?
[Verse 2]
My pride is dying
I think I'm all done lying, oh!
Nobody's sharing
So I stopped caring, oh!
All alone and walking
Nobody's talking, oh!
[Chorus]
Why can't you be nicer to me?
[Verse 3]
Well, the wind is blowing
Where am I going?
Oh!
Off a bridge and falling
Nobody's calling, oh!
On the ground and laying
Nobody's praying, oh!
[Chorus]
Why can't you be nicer to me?
Why can't you be nicer to me?

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation
Others always find fault with him and teach him how to live, as if they care about him, but with the metaphor “Off a bridge and falling
Nobody’s calling, oh!
On the ground and laying
Nobody’s praying, oh!” he shows that everyone really doesn’t care about him.
