You're Only Happy When You're Miserable

[Verse 1]

Go sell your snake oil to someone you used to know

I've heard your whining 'til my motor just won't go

The sky ain't falling though I know you wished it would

I almost hate to tell you that I'm leaving you for good

[Chorus 1]

You're only happy when you're miserable

I'm all amped up, you're all clamped down

I've never seen you with your cup half full

Worst case scenario, yeah that's the girl I know

[Verse 2]

Go tell your mother it was all my fault

Your baby brother, I ain't worth my salt

Your bold prediction that I'd bail on you

Turns out my nightmare is your dream come true

[Chorus 2]

You're only happy when you're miserable

Go on and run it in the ground

Hard time I get it through my own thick skull

Your doomsday fantasy means more to you than me

You're only happy when you're miserable

[Bridge]

Don't know the last time that I've seen you smile

I only know it's been a long long while

I tried to change you like I thought I should

You pulled the wool on me, it ain't no mystery

[Verse 3]

You court disaster with a surgeon's skill

I've got good news for you, I've had my fill

The sun is shining and you're pulling out your hair

Too close to crazy to pretend I even care

[Chorus 3]

You're only happy when you're miserable

I ramp it up, you clamp it down

You've made an art form out of pitiful

It's raining cats and dogs, you'd rather snakes and frogs

You're only happy when you're miserable

You're only happy when you're miserable

You're only happy when you're miserable

You're only happy when you're miserable
