Misery (feat. Rosemary Standley)

Misery is my friend

Misery is my friend

Some people seem to be doing well nowadays

Others were unhappy, even worried

About themselves, their families, and their futures

There are more poor than ever

More families in trouble, more and more people

Who need help, but can't find it

People who sleep in the city streets

Misery is my friend (In the city streets)

Misery is my friend

Misery is my friend

Misery is my friend

There are ghettos where thousands of young people

Without a job or an education

Give their lives away every day

Survival of the fittest

There is despair in the faces that you don't see

There is despair in the places that you don't visit

In the city streets

Misery is my friend (In the city streets)

Misery is my friend

Misery is my friend

Misery is my friend

Taking care of the strong and charity will do the rest

Make the rich richer and what falls from the table

Will be enough, that's an old story

This is how we were warned it would be

Remember this

This is how we were warned it would be

Remind ourselves where we come from
