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.

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 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.

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

I'm only happy when it rains
You want to hear about my new obsession --
I'm riding high upon a deep depression,
I'm only happy when it rains.

I first heard this song in a commersial of a TV series "Crossing Jordan", and immediately fell in love with it (although apparently not deeply enough to actually watch the series). Anyway, one day I've spent like five hours on the Internet, trying to figure out whose song it is and then to download it. So now I'm proud to inform you that the group that performs it is called Garbage. On the more serious note, I like this song so much because that's exactly how I feel. I'm such a perfectionist that I constantly drive myself insane with worries (literally!!! Haven't you noticed it yet?) Plus I enjoy paradoxes, and this song obviously has a lot of those.
