Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now

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
But 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 I die?

Two lovers entwined, oh, they passed me by
And heaven knows I'm miserable now
I was looking for a job and then I found a job
But 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 I die?

Would she ask for me at the end of the day?
Oh, Caligula would have blushed
"Oh, you've been in the house too long," she said
And I, I naturally fled

In my life, oh, why do I smile
At people I'd much rather pick in the eye?
In my life, oh, why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or I die?
Live or I die?
Live or I die?
