I Hate Everything
He was sittin there beside me throwin doubles down
When he ordered up his third one, he looked around
Then he looked at me, and said, I do believe
Ill have one more.
He said, I hate this bar, and I hate to drink
But on second thought tonight I think I hate everything.
Then he opened up his billfold and threw a twenty down
And a faded photograph fell out and hit the ground
And I picked it up, he said, Thank you, bud.
I put it in his hand
He said, I probably ought to throw this one away
Cause shes the reason I feel this way
Why I hate everything.
CHORUS:
Why I hate my job, and I hate my life
And if it werent for my two kids, Id hate my ex-wife
I know I should move on and try to start again
But I just cant get over her leaving me for him
Then he shook his head and looked down at his ring
And said, I have everything.
He said, That one bedroom apartment where I get my mail
Is really not a home, its more like a jail
With a swimming pool and a parking lot view
Man, its just great.
I hate summer, winter, fall and spring
Red and yellow, purple, blue and green
I hate everything.
REPEAT CHORUS
So I pulled out my phone, and I called my house
I said, Babe, Im coming home, were gonna
Work this out.
I paid for his drinks, and I told him Thanks.
Thanks for everything
