[Verse 1]
It’s quite hot in the suburbs
Mum, don’t worry, I’m on my way home
You will be disappointed by a liar
It looked like love to you but it was something else
He drinks champagne during Ramadan
On the TV they are airing Jackie Chan
He smokes shisha, he asks me how I’m doing

[Pre-Chorus]
He asks me, "How are you doing?", "How are you doing?", "How are you doing?"
You already know how things are going, how things are going, how things are going
I think faster trying to figure out whether tomorrow you will fool me
I got no time to clear things up because only now I found out what you are
It's hard to be alive
When you lose your pride
You leave home out of the blue
You, tell me whether

[Chorus]
You only thought about money, money
As if I have had any money, money
Tell me whether you miss me or you don’t give a damn, give a damn
You used to ask me, "How are you doing?", "How are you doing?", "How are you doing?"
Now how things are going, how things are going, how things are going

[Verse 2]
You haven’t told yet what you had to tell
Betrayal is a bullet in the chest
Keep all your mercy to yourself
You keep lying at home but you know that she knows
On a chair, she’ll be asking me

[Pre-Chorus]
You ask me, "How are you doing?", "How are you doing?", "How are you doing?"
You already know how things are going, how things are going, how things are going
I think faster trying to figure out whether tomorrow you will fool me
I got no time to clear things up because only now I found out what you are
It's hard to be alive
When you lose your pride
I figured it out in one second
That you, from me

[Chorus]
You only wanted money, money
As if I have had any money, money
Before, you used to talk to me till late, late
You used to ask me, "How are you doing?", "How are you doing?", "How are you doing?"
Now how things are going, how things are going, how things are going

[Bridge]
"My son, my son, darling, come over here"
You used to tell me while playing, looking proud
"My son, my son, darling", it looked real
Your wish, your wish to bring things back to what they were

[Pre-Chorus]
I – from you – didn’t want any money
It's hard to be alive
When you lose your pride
You leave home out of the blue
You, tell me if

[Chorus]
You only wanted money, money
As if I had money, money
You leave the city without anybody knowing
Yesterday you were here, where are you now, dad?
You ask me, "How are you doing?", "How are you doing?", "How are you doing?"
You already know how things are going, how things are going, how things are going
