HEAVEN KNOWS I'M MISERABLE NOW Lyrics

Artist: The Smiths
Album: BEST...2

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 ?

by Davy on 7/27/2008 9:22am I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour but heaven knows i'm miserable now! I love this phrase. It's the post-happiness feeling one gets after a nice time, specially if there was a drunken hour. Slowly melancholia settles and the emptiness describes the miserable time. Loneliness makes it worse. Even getting a job doesnt make things better! Damn, how i love this!
