The Man They Love To Hate

They woke to grey English morning, and to a strange honeymoon
The girl who gave him all her love and the man who said it still wouldn't do
His parents always worked hard, never went to bed late
And though they were God's own people, they're still the ones he loves to hate
He never wanted to suffer this fate
All the girls have fallen for the man the love to hate
The city is an animal, it snores and by day it roars
And though he loved to hate it he couldn't live without it's flaws
With personal curtains moaning at a thousand harsh words then hush
The girl she wanted to leave because she loved the man too much
He never wanted to suffer this fate
All the girls have fallen for the man the love to hate
His father was a fighter and he practised on his son
His mother was just some furniture who'd lost the will to run
The girl she wrote him a farewell note and though he probably didn't care too much
The girl she finally left him because she loved the man too much
