Oh, my misery is a mystery
She's my mistress when she's with me
And i miss her when she's history
Oh, my misery is a mystery
Oh, mysterious delirious
Why is happiness so furious?
And it is tiring to be curious
My euphoria is dangerous
Oh, how glorious to sleep
In between our raging days
It's the sweetest relief
Holy moses, life is roses
Just be vary of the process
Give it water in small doses
And cut it down when it's ferocious
Oh, my misery is a mystery
She's my mistress when she's with me
And i miss her when she's history
Oh, my misery is a mystery
