"Happy For The First Time In My Whole Miserable Life" Copyright. Words and music by Xanthe Littlemore 1) When I was a child I learned to escape With records and reefers behind blackout drapes Suddenly lately things have come out right And I'm happy for the first time in my whole miserable life 2) Since I was born a big black cloud has hung Over everything that I have ever begun Today I look 'round and I don't see no strife And I'm happy for the first time in my whole miserable life Bridge) Oh don't bother me now, just let me exist Let me soak in the sunshine and bathe in the mist Oh and don't interrupt - I'm just getting the gist You don't know what you're missing 'til you find what you've missed 3) Now I have a garden and I have a cat The sky is so blue here and that's where it's at I make my own dinner and I work late at night So happy for the first time in my whole miserable life I am happy for the first time in my whole miserable life
