Hate Everything About You Composer(s): Rodney Crowell; Steve Lukather Performer(s): Toto
Night after night, day after day I pass by the house that once was our home I look through the windows, I lean on the bell Theres a light but theres no sign of you The strangers new car in the driveway tells me you're there I know youre there I feel like a chump doing time on the street Low life and useless as the rags on my feet showin through You dont know how much I hate everything about you
Your honey red lips and your eyes big and sparkling blue The curve of your hips and your black irish hair Sends a shiver that runs through me too You dont know how much I hate you, wish it was true The alleys are dark, sidewalks are bare Times on my hands empty and cold Im looking for something to knock out the night Till the sun comes up shining like new The chill in my bones reminds me life isnt fair and nobody cares To the lost souls surviving on hard knocks and vice In a world just as nasty as your world is nice (baby blue) You dont know how much I hate everything about you
Your voice like good bourbon so elegant, tasteful and smooth Youre a goddess, a priestess, a temptress, a queen Greta Garbos got nothing on you You dont know how much I hate you, wish it was true You were kind to my brother and good to my friends You were passionate, faithful and strong I must have been sleeping It feels like a dream I cant tell just where I went wrong Like a dog in the garbage with rocks in my head Im strung out and crazy and cant find the thread, running through You dont know how much I hate everything about you
The poison that runs through my veins telling me what to do With a flick of a match I could burn down this house Taking every last memory of you You dont know how much I hate you I say, you dont know how much I hate you You dont know how much I hate you I wish it was true Oh, yes I do
