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 "oh 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 "oh you've been in the house too long" she said And i naturally fled In my life oh why do i give valuable time To people who don't care if i live or die ?
