The Lyrics

Cashier friendliness is not equal to actual friendliness. Please don't mix the two up.
I say the same damn bit to all who come 'round
Almost no-one takes it all that serious
But then it got too real 'cause you heard my spiel
And that corp'rate fluff made you delirious, yeah-eah-eah
I guess you want a mate, want a mate, want a mate
Oh, but I have said the same, said the same, said the same
To all who come this way, come this way, come this way
And so you come off as insane, as insane, yeah-eah-eah

I know that I said "Hi! I hope your day is great!", true
But that was not a super-special greetin' for you
Was not an invitation to come closer, my dude
Not personal at all, no special greetin' for you
Buddy, no
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, greetin' for you
Buddy, no
It's just generic crap, no special greetin' for you

Right next to me you stand for the whole damn day
'Cause it turns out you're talky, don't wanna shut your gob (whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Got no time for a chat, even told you that
But you just say good friends stop work for a talk
Dude, I am not your mate, not your mate, not your mate (not your mate)
Oh, you're just a giant pain, giant pain, giant pain (giant pain)
Don't care 'bout what you say, what you say, what you say (what you say)
Not int'restin', you're super lame, super lame, yeah-eah-eah

Your chat's an inane babble 'bout what you like for food (don't care, it's true, buddy)
'Cause you took what I said as a nice greetin' for you (greetin' for you)
Which, yes, it kinda was, just wasn't personal, true (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
The same for ev'ryone, no special greetin' for you
Buddy, no
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, greetin' for you
Buddy, no
Misunderstood stock crap, no special greetin' for you (buddy, no)

I can't deal with all your shit (ah-ah)
Ev'rybody else feels like this (ah-ah)
Want you to shut up, they all wish (ah-ah)
You would go away (ah-ah)
Ee-yeah-eah-eah-eah-eah-eah-eah-eah-eah

It could be worse if I happened to not be a dude
And gave what you thought was a special greetin' for you (greetin' for you)
The blame would, for some reason, end up on me, it's true (sadly, it's true)
When you're the one who botched my standard greetin' for you (believe it, buddy)
Buddy, no (my words were fine)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, greetin' for you (you who screwed it up)
Buddy, no (my spiel was fine)
So badly misinterpreted my greetin' for you (you who ballsed it up)

Please, sir, must I
Call the guard's hotline?

I thought about doing the whole parody from a woman's perspective, but I didn't think that'd be really funny so I just tacked it on the end as a "well, it could be worse, but this is still bad, cut it out" kinda thing.
