i'll fake it through the day

with some help from johnny walker red

send the poison rain down the drain

to put bad thoughts in my head

two tickets torn in half

and a lot of nothing to do

do you miss me, miss misery

like you say you do?



a man in the park

read the lines in my hand

told me i'm strong

hardly ever wrong i said man you mean



you had plans for both of us

that involved a trip out of town

to a place i've seen in a magazine

that you left lying around

i don't have you with me but

i keep a good attitude

do you miss me, miss misery

like you say you do?



i know you'd rather see me gone

than to see me the way that i am

but i am in the life anyway



next door the tv's flashing

blue frames on the wall

it's a comedy of errors, you see

it's about taking a fall

to vanish into oblivion

is easy to do

and i try to be but you know me

i come back when you want me to

do you miss me miss misery

like you say you do?
