Misery Company - Lyrics - Kaiser Chiefs

Kaiser Chiefs are an English indie rock band from Leeds who formed in 2000 as Parva, releasing one studio album, 22, in 2003, before renaming and establishing themselves in their current name that same year. Since their formation the band consists of lead vocalist Ricky Wilson, guitarist Andrew "Whitey" White, bassist Simon Rix, keyboardist Nick "Peanut" Baines and since 2013 drummer Vijay Mistry, who replaced founding drummer Nick Hodgson who left the band in late 2012.

It's hard to believe That I smile in my sleep 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 liked the tension I just want to live quietly In 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 Oh what a cutie Here comes officer Dave Reporting for duty A cut and a shave Number three For Misery Company My vaudeville training Kept us off the front line Taught to kill entertaining Tops the bill every time 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
