This is a whiny song, well kind of, about daily interactions with others.
Lyrics:
In the normal routine of every day
We encounter people in lots of ways
They casually ask the same old thing
That all have a somewhat boring ring
With doubtful intend ask how are you
take a breath then ask how's work too
at no moment listening to a word said
or any deep thoughts in your head
Chorus
Nobody asks if you are happy
Nobody seems to really care
buy the crowd a round of drink
Nobody cares how you think.
Nobody asks if you are happy
Nobody seems to really care
If your car and house look ideal
Nobody cares how you feel
They only ask about situations faced
like somehow your life can be traced
they may be judging them against you
Wondering if your life is true.
Based on their idea of fortune and fame
And your ability to win that game
If they really cared about you a twitch
They'd ask how you make life rich
So next time you see me anywhere
And want to take a moment to share
It won't be rude or even sappy
To ask what makes me happy
I'll tell you I've got the love of my family
Plus a list of good friends a plenty
I find purpose and passion to rid out strife
I'll be happy for the rest of my life
