Lyrics of Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now by The Smiths

verse

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

chorus

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

verse

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

chorus

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

verse

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

chorus

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

verse

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But Heaven knows, I'm miserable now
"Oh, you've been in the house too long", she said
And I naturally fled

chorus

In my life, oh, why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die?
Writer(s): Steven Patrick Morrissey, Johnny Marr
