Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now — The Smiths

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour But heaven knows I'm miserable now

I was looking for a job, and then I found a job And heaven knows I'm miserable now

In my life Why do I give valuable time To people who don't care if I live or die ?

Two lovers entwined pass me by And heaven knows I'm miserable now

I was looking for a job, and then I found a job And heaven knows I'm miserable now

In my life Oh, why do I give valuable time To people who don't care if I live or die ?

What she asked of me at the end of the day Caligula would have blushed

You've been in the house too long she said And I (naturally) fled

In my life Why do I smile At people who I'd much rather kick in the eye ?

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour But heaven knows I'm miserable now

You've been in the house too long she said And I (naturally) fled

In my life Why do I give valuable time To people who don't care if I live or die ?
