It's hard to believe that I smile in my sleep
'Cause everyone leaves me
I'm so hard to keep company
I'm Misery Company
Most people don't mention the stripes on my sleeve
Though I like the tension
I just want to live quietly
In Misery Company
[Chorus:]
The weight of the world is in our kit bag
It straightens my curls when I admit that
We don't even know what we're fighting for
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haa
Oh, what a cutie, here comes Officer Dave
Reporting for duty, a cut and a shave
Number 3
For misery company
My vaudeville training kept us off the front line
Taught to kill, entertaining
Tops the bill everytime, naturally
We're Misery Company
The weight of the world is in our kit bag
It straightens my curls when I admit that
We don't even know what we're fighting for
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haa
[x2]
The weight of the world is in our kit bag
It straightens my curls when I admit that
We don't even know what we're fighting for
