Except For The Hatred
Last night I dined
on beef and asparagus
and I thought about him
with his chips and his mushy peas
and I thought about him
with his co-op swiss roll
as I munched on my crackers
and crumbs of soft stilton
as I bit on my bitter
herbs.
I writhed in my big bed
and stared at the ceiling
and I gritted my teeth
at his stinking and snoring
and I thought about him
and his lazy ignoring
so excuse my red eyes
and my spiderlike twitching
its part of my being
Its part of my being!
Everything is fine
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
Everything is fine
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
I dream of a morning
of sunlight and butterflies
I hope for a day of peace
I pray for a way out
a way to escape him
and if death won't take me
then I pray it will take him!
Everything is fine
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
Everything is fine
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
It's so nice to see you.
It's so nice to be here.
I wish I could stay here.
I want to be free.
I feel that I'm dying.
I feel we won't meet again.
I feel we won't meet again.
I feel
I feel!
I shudder at my desk
as I work on my documents
and I think about him
in his vest watching television
and I think about him
with his nicotine fingers
as I sip my green tea
as I mix up a salad
of dark and bitter
herbs.
Everything is fine
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
Everything is fine
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
Except for the hatred
