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?
