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?
