This is a song about stuff that I hate Momma always said that hate was a strong, strong word Poppa always said that words of hate should never be heard But I'm getting older and I just cannot lie There are things I hate, no matter how hard I try I hate traffic, I hate dirt in my eyes I hate spiders, and I hate girlfriends that lie I hate cancer, I hate cauliflower pie But most of all, I hate my ex-girlfriend's new guy, I hate that guy The good book says that we should love everyone And I'm doing my best, but it's easier said than done This new guy was a good friend of mine before Caught him with my girl in his mustang ford I hate taxes, I hate stink bugs and flies I hate rug burns, and I hate poke dot ties I hate Mike Tyson, 'cause bite your ear then bust you in the eye But most of all, I hate my ex-girlfriend's new guy, I hate that guy I was sittin' down by myself, I was having a coke I heard someone laughing real loud at a real dumb joke I recognized the voice so I turned around It was my ex-girlfriend's new guy, can't stand that clown He walked up to me with a really sorry look on his face And he said, man I done you wrong but now she's gone and I've been replaced I know I don't deserve to have you as a friend because I played the fool But I'm really hurtin' man, can I just pull up a stool So he started crying and saying how he loved that girl She got with a new guy and it rocked his world He asked me how I dealt with it when she dumped me And I said, I just talked about stuff I hate man, it's like therapy And he said, really, I said yeah, yeah, give it a shot go ahead I hate pimples, I hate hemorrhoids and hives I hate funerals, I hate unsalted fries I hate Brittney spears because she never returns any of the letters that I Write But most of all, I hate my ex-girlfriend's new guy Wouldn't mind if someone huge fell on his head and he died Like a bus, or a truck, or a meteorite A hippopotamus, a rhinoceros or even a pig if it was falling from a great height I hate that guy
