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 Why do I give valuable time To people who don't care if I live or I 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? 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 I die? </poem> ==Music Video== <youtube>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjPhzgxe3L0</youtube> ===Credits=== *Performed On [[Top Of The Pops]], BBC, 31 May 1984 {{CommonSongSections | Artist = The Smiths | Song = {{#replace:{{#replace:{{PAGENAME}}| (single)|}}| (song)|}}}}
