[Verse]
Eadd#9
Well I wake up in the morning at 11: 47
Aadd#9
And I can't believe I have to face the horror of another fucking day
Eadd#9
And the magnificent magnitude of my morning erection
Aadd#9
Merely mocks me like the sun in it's optimistic greeting of the day
ManaF#mging to manifest a modiBcum of motivation
I meF#mander to the kitchen make a Bmission out of mixing F#mNescafe
Aadd#9
But the milk is going off and coffee by itself is bitter
And there's ants all through the sugar and the supermarket's miles a-fucking-Bway

[Chorus]
My Blife is pretty E7sad
But I Aknow that I should be Dglad
I C#7could be a starving Ethiope
Or a F#policeman in Baghdad F#7

[Verse]
Eadd#9
At 11: 53 I instigate the day's ablutions
Aadd#9
In the hope my constitution can be altered by some action on the bowl
Eadd#9
But the total non-existence of colonic animation
Aadd#9
Seems to me the perfect metaphor for the utter constipation of my soul
By F#m11: 59 I have deBcided that my life would be imF#mmediately improved
By a Bcarefully written list of F#mshort-term goals
Aadd#9
But by 12.05 my list consists of one-dot put some pants on
Two-dot go to the shop, buy some prunes and PanaBdol

[Chorus]
My Blife is pretty E7shit
But I Aknow I shouldn't whinge abDout it
I C#7could be a Palestinian
Driving F#buses on the Gaza stripF#7
Yeah Bhow bad can it E7be?
Some Apeople have it worse than Dme
I Ccould be an Ipswich Fprostitute
Or B7Gary Glitter's family
B I have no E7right to cry
Some Apeople have it worse than DI
I C#7could be a thalidomide kid
With F#something in my eye F#7
SoBmething in my eBye B7 B6 B
My B7eyeB6 B
[Verse]
At E712: 30 I realise I'm feeling so dejected
That I've totally neglected the beginning of the Jerry SpringerA13 show
So I E7settle on the sofa try to focus an iota of my motor-neurons
On the brilliant insights for which Jerry iA13s known
And F#malthough on any other day a Bshow entitled "Midgets, Midgets, F#mMidgets"
Would excite me like a Bvirgin at her year eleven F#mball
Aadd#9
Today those little jelly-wrestling fellas fail to free me of my misery
Instead they simply serve to make me feel three foot Btall

[Chorus]
But Bhow bad can it E7be?
Some Apeople have it worse than Dme
I C#7could be a junior life saver
On a F#Banda Aceh beach F#7
Or a Ewoman in afgA7hanistan
Or a DJew in the Ku Klux G7Klan
Or the Carchitect of the FWorld Trade Centre
Or a Bbobcat driver in Bam Iran
I Bcould have my identity misE7taken
As a Abomber in an underground sDtation
I C#7could be a peace-loving speech-writer
In F#7George W's adminisFtration
Yeah, I Eknow that I don't have the A7right
To Dbe unhappy with my G7life
I Ccould be Hitlers Fmother
Or B7Shane Warne's wife
Yeah, I Bknow that I shouldn't beE7 bitchin'
I Acould be in a worse poDsition
I C#7could be a 3-nippled naturopath
In the F#m7days of the Spanish
In the FSpanish inquisition
[Outro]
I Eknow I have no right, no A7right to cry
Some Dpeople have it much, much G7worse than I
I Ccould have a serious Fnut allergy
And be Bshipwrecked on an island with a Acrate of Snickers bars,
A G#7jar of Nutella and a F#fresh bakedF pecan EpieE/G# E/A E/A#
Some Epeople have it worse than I! F E
