Song lyrics
I'm only happy when it rains
I'm only happy when it's complicated
And though I know you can't appreciate it
I'm only happy when it rains
You know I love it when the news is bad
Why it feels so good to feel so sad
I'm only happy when it rains

Pour your misery down
Pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down
Pour your misery down on me

I'm only happy when it rains
I feel good when things are going wrong
I only listen to the sad, sad songs
I'm only happy when it rains

I only smile in the dark
My only comfort is the night gone black
I didn't accidentally tell you that
I'm only happy when it rains
You'll get the message by the time I'm through
When I complain about me and you
I'm only happy when it rains

Pour your misery down (pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me (pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down (pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me (pour your misery down)

Pour your misery down (pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me (pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down (pour it)

You can keep me company
As long as you don't care

I'm only happy when it rains
You'll wanna hear about my new obsession
I'm riding high upon a deep depression
I'm only happy when it rains (pour some misery down on me)

I'm only happy when it rains (pour some misery down on me)
I'm only happy when it rains (pour some misery down on me)
I'm only happy when it rains (pour some misery down on me)
I'm only happy when it rains

Pour some misery down on me
Pour some misery down on me
Pour some misery down on me
Pour some misery down on me

I'm only happy when it rains

Okay, this song kicks major ass. Shirley has a better voice than Britney for sure... You guys should check out some of the 007 theme songs, particularly: Die Another Day (Madonna), The World is not Enough (Garbage), Tomorrow Never Dies (Sheryl Crow), and Goldeneye (Tina Turner)

I am a huge garbage fan. This was the song that got me into them, so of course I love it. Though most definitley not their best song....it captures their mood and sound well.

"Pour your misery down on me..."
Quintessential mid-90s alternative track. Perfect introduction to the band.

I love this song and I absolutly LOVE garbage. Shirley is one of the prettiest rock stars there is. And her voice tops like EVERY singer out there.

Shilrley is a great vocalist, her voice adds a whole new dimension to the song, she really gets you into it... The song describes me pretty well, and although everybody says it's not their best song, it's my favorite!
