Madness (Band) - Misery lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] Why don't you go s** on a silver spoon Buy a spaceship and fly over the moon See the colours 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] [Verse 1]
