Why Can't You Be Nicer to Me? lyrics

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!

Why can't you be nicer to me?

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!

Why can't you be nicer to me?

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!

Why can't you be nicer to me?
