This was a 2014 collaboration with my friend Stacy Dulan. Something new for me. What great fun!
Lyrics
Sittin' down with a cup of Joe.
Here comes Larry don't you know.
He's got his attitude in tow.
Uh oh! (uh oh)
Doesn't notice that I frown. (that I frown)
Doesn't ask just sits right down. (no, no, please don't)
People think he's just a clown
But I know. (know, know, know, know)
That misery loves company and misery loves him.
In my head I start to wonder
Was that him or was that thunder?
This day may be going under
Fast. (speed daemon)
'Cause when it's sunny he's a cloud. (he's a cloud)
He's that one in every crowd. (no, no, please no)
Makes me want to laugh out loud,
Kinda. (not really, no not really)
'Cause misery loves company and misery loves him.
What it is and what it ain't,
With every gripe and each complaint
He shows he's the patron saint
Of gloom. (Larry's the one in every room)
But we need Larry, yes we do (yes we do)
Reminding us what not to do, (not to do)
And though it may be sad, it's true,
We need him.
'Cause misery loves company but misery needs friends.
Before I saw him here today
Some little things were in my way (in my way)
But now he's gone I'm glad to say
I feel better. (Thank you, Larry)
Those miseries I thought were mine (thought were mine)
Have left now, trailing out behind (go, go, please go)
Someone they know is sure to find
More company. (company)
'Cause misery loves company and misery loves him.
Yes misery loves company ... and I'm not him.
