Elliot Smith Miss Misery Lyrics

Miss Misery Lyrics

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 nothin' 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'd left lyin'
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 your life any
way

Next door the T.V.'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
It's easy to do
And I tried to leave but you know me
I come
back when you want me to.

Do you miss me, Miss Misery
Like you say
you do
