about

Just put out this collaboration with my good friend MNLOP. You might notice a striking similarity in the title from a certain Louis CK bit from a few years ago. I stumbled across it again while working on MNLOP's instrumental and immediately found a melody and purpose in the sentiment 'everything's amazing but nobody's happy'.

I hope this song finds you well and you can relate to it.

lyrics

Everything's Amazing (Nobody's Happy)

They said the outlook was good
Just a couple more weeks
And we’d be out of the woods
But don’t be reading the news
Make sure all of your friends
Play by the same set of rules
I thought we had a rapport
With the childish humour that you go for
Look at my face, look at yours in the first place
Have a nice day

Everything’s amazing but nobody’s happy
nobody’s happy nobody

I don’t mean to be rude
We all got places to be
I got nothing to lose
I think we’re all past our prime
You’re not as good as you were
But I wasn’t there at the time
Maybe we’re just listless
In spite of all the lists and clenched fists
Maybe we’re all just still kids
Fighting for something to prove
Baby it is what it is
Look at my face, look at yours in the first place
Have a nice day

Everything’s amazing but nobody’s happy
nobody’s happy nobody

Not your friend who you’d swear
Wouldn’t frown if she could
Not the rich and famous are blameless
Nobody told me to cry like they really should
It’s a crime to be hiding a thing that good

Everything’s amazing but nobody’s happy
nobody’s happy nobody
