Madness - Misery lyrics

rate me

Misery loves company

That's what the wise man said

Don't come to me for sympathy

If you can't raise your head

Stand up and see

What your life could be

If you wore a smile instead

If you keep misery as your company

Then you might as well be dead

Why don't you go and suck on a silver spoon

Buy a spaceship and fly over the moon

See the colors in the flowers and the trees

Take a lesson from the birds and the bees

Why don't you go skipping out in the park

Give yourself a chance to make a new start

Try and focus on your health and your heart

Accept the present and let go of the past

Misery loves company

That's what the wise man said

The remedy to be happy

Well, it's all inside your head

Shift infinitesimally your perception and see

Your life could be better led

Don't keep misery as your company

Or you might as well be dead

Why don't you go and suck on a silver spoon

Buy a spaceship and fly over the moon

See the colors in the flowers and the trees

Take a lesson from the birds and the bees

Why don't you go skipping out in the park

Give yourself a chance to make a new start

Try and focus on your health and your heart

Accept the present and let go of the past

Misery loves company

That's what the wise man said

Don't come to me for sympathy

If you can't raise your head

Stand up and see

What your life could be

If you wore a smile instead

If you keep misery as your company

Then you might as well be dead
