About

One of the Pet Shop Boys’s most beloved b-sides (originally released on the “Was It Worth It?” single from 1991’s Behaviour and later included on the b-sides compilation Alternative), “Miserablism” skewers both the teenage inclination for gloomy pessimism and the dour public persona of Morrissey.

Miserablism Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It seems to me there's something serious beginning
A new approach found to the meaning of life
Deny that happiness is open as an option
And disappointment disappears overnight

[Pre-Chorus]
Say that love is an impossible dream
Face the facts, that's what it's always been
Relax, what you see is what you see
And what you get is a new philosophy
(That's what you got, that's what you get)
(That's what you got, that's what you get)

[Chorus]
Miserablism
Is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism
Is is and isn't isn't

[Verse 2]
Meanwhile your life is still directed as a drama
With realism in the sparsest of sets
Every performance tends to reach the same conclusion
No happy endings but a message to depress

[Pre-Chorus]
Saying life is an impossible scheme
That's the point of this philosophy

[Chorus]
Miserablism
Is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism
Is is and isn't isn't

[Bridge]
But if 'is' wasn't, and 'isn't' were
You can't be sure, but you might find ecstasy

[Interlude]
"Oh, no!"

[Verse 3]
Just for the sake of it make sure you're always frowning
(Angst! Angst! Angst!)
It shows the world that you've got substance and depth

[Pre-Chorus]
You know life is an impossible scheme
And love an imperceptible dream
(That's what you got, that's what you get)
(That's what you got, that's what you get)

[Chorus]
Miserablism
Is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism
Is is and isn't isn't

[Chorus]
Miserablism
Is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism
Is is and isn't isn't

[Chorus]
Miserablism
Is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism
Is is and isn't isn't

[Outro]
Miserable
