Ill Wear It Proudly
I hate these flaming curtains theyre not the color of your hair
I hate these striplights theyre not so undoing as your stare
I hate the buttons on your shirt when all I wanna do is tear
I hate this bloody big bed of mine when youre not here
[chorus]
Well I finally found someone to turn me upside down
And nail my feet up where my head should be
If they had a king of fools then I could wear that crown
And you can all die laughing because Ill wear it proudly
Well you seem to be shivering dear and the room is awfully warm
In the white and scarlet billows that subside beyond the storm
You have this expression dear no words could take its place
And I wear it like a badge that you put all over my face
[chorus]
Ill wear it proudly through the dives and the dancehalls
If youll wear it proudly through the snakepits and catcalls
Like a fifteen year old kid wears a vampire kiss
If you dont know what is wrong with me
Then you dont know what youve missed
We are arms and legs wrapped round more than my memory tonight
When the bell rang out and the air outside turned blue from fright
But in shameless moments you made more of me than just a mess
And a handful of eagerness says what do you suggest?
[chorus]

I Hate You.
I hate the way you dress
I hate that you are a mess
I hate your eyes
I hate your lies.
I hate it when you talk
I hate the way you walk
I hate your smile
I hate your style.
I hate your arms
I hate your charms
I hate your face
I hate your place.
I hate your hands
I hate your plans
I hate the way you think
I hate it when you drink.
I hate when you call
I hate it all
I hate it that you are true
I hate you when I’m blue.
I hate you when you sleep
I hate you very deep
I hate the way you kiss
I hate to be like this.
I hate your touch
I hate you much
I hate myself more
I hate that’s you I adore.
I hate, I don’t hate you a bit
I hate, I will have to admit
I don’t hate you, Not even small
I don’t hate you at all.

Hate It
I hate the way you look at me
I hate the way you stare
I hate the way you tell me you love me
Even more when you say you care
I hate the way you hold my hand
I hate the smell of your sweater
I hate the way you hug me
And tell me things are going to get better
I hate the way you wear your hat
And the way you drive your car
I hate that I can’t see you
Why do you have to be so far?
I hate the way I can’t hate you
And I hate how I can’t give up

Wear My Hat
She came looking for me with her arms open wide,
Like some long lost friend of mine.
She said excuse me, but do you remember me ?
I said no, I dont believe I do
So she looked me up and down
And undressed me with her eyes,
Then she said youve got everything I need, youve got everything I want
So I said ok,
You can wear my hat,
You can have my coat,
You can take my shirt
cos I dont need it.
You can wear my shoes,
You can take my socks,
Come on take my bag its yours
If you love it,
You can have it if you love it,
Aint no problem if you love it,
Come on take it if you love it.
So her friend came up to me
With a pen and paper in her hand,
Expressing some interest in the number of my room,
She said excuse me, but do you remember me?
I said no, she said can I appeal to you?
So I looked her up and down
And realising her insinuations I blushed
She said listen babe you dont know me,
No you dont know me but you owe me,
And I love you,
Yes I love you,
Put your arms around me cos I love you,
I got all your records and I love you
So I suggested
You can wear my hat,
You can have my coat,
You can take my shirt
cos I dont need it.
You can wear my shoes,
You can take my socks,
Come on take my bag its yours
If you love it,
You can have it if you love it,
Aint no problem if you love it,
Come on take it if you love it.
Well later on that day this guy came to me
With a scrap of paper in his hand
He said hey buddy can you sign your name for me?
I said why, do I owe you money? he said no
I said listen pal do I know you? have we ever met?
Why do you want my name on this little piece of paper?
He said i love you,
I dont know you but I love you,
Like my brother I love you,
Put your arms around me cos I love you
I said hey lets not rush things
You can wear my hat,
You can have my coat,
You can take my shirt
cos I dont need it.
You can wear my shoes,
You can take my socks,
Come on take my bag its yours
If you love it,
You can have it if you love it,
Aint no problem if you love it,
Come on take it if you love it.
You can wear my hat,
You can wear my hat,
You can wear my hat,
Come on wear my hat.

I Hate The Way
I hate people who judge me,
and dont like me 4 wat i wear
I hate the way they treat me,
and the way they think im aware
I hate the fact that there so stupid,
and they dont understand anything
I hate the way they think there so cool,
and have everything
I hate the fact that there so afraid of the way i act
but all i know is that i dont take crap from no one,
and thats a fact
I hate the way they dont like me for who i am
So forget them,
who gives a damn! ! !

Hatred Of You

i hate seeing you every once and awhile

Chasing Sirens
If you need to change your style sometimes
To please and satisfy
Theyll call you a hypocrite
Youre giving birth to all new friends
Visions theyll never comprehend
Because theyre all so selfish
Chorus:
Everyone look at me chasing sirens
Demanding their attention
So selfish
Trying to discover whats wrong with my mind
So they started to upheaval
But you prompted the war
Youre still a hypocrite
Snapping the sleepers into motion
So their systems will change
Right now youre giving up but let me show you
Chorus
You like to be the center of attention dont you
Under the spell of another phase
So pretentious
Plastic uninvited
Dont you fnd it strange
How they wear their egos on their sleeves
Until they see your face
Dont you find it strange
How they wear their egos on their sleeves
Until they see your face
Chorus
This day should last forever
Stuck on the merry go around
Keep spinning, never want to come down
So selfish

Under your spell
Passers by will strain their necks
on the beach
and like fools
stop and stare at your beauty
and maybe you will wear
a one-piece swimsuit
or a tiny bikini
and it would be black,
or bright blue or red
and maybe white.
Men will stay men
be dressed in swimming trunks
and some will wear only jocks
and all of us will have lumps,
some with ruffled hair and freckles
like men do
and I will parade you proudly,
receive a smile and kiss,
rub lotion on your brown body
and we will lie in the sun
and later will bath in the swell,
swim with the waves
in the cold Atlantic
and I will be under your spell
and you might love me still.

Outside Of That I Love You
What makes you think I'm crazy about you?
What makes you think I can't do without you?
I've looked you over carefully
And if I never see you again, it's soon enough for me
I hate the ground you walk upon
I hate the phone you talk upon
I hate 'most ev'rything that you do
I hate that funny little mouth you drink with
That peanut on your shoulders that you think with
I hate the rouge upon your lips
The polish on your finger tips
I hate your eyes of heavenly blue
I hate the way you sigh, honest I do
Outside of that, I love you
[Female version:]
I hate the way you comb your hair
I hate the flashy clothes you wear
I hate the patent shine on your shoe
I hate the closet that you keep your clothes in
I hate the handkerchief you blow your nose in
I hate the smell of your cigar
The way you lean against a bar
I hate the jokes you tell that are blue
I hate that fancy tie, honest I do
Outside of that, I love you

Dont Take Me Down
i love you girl thats what you used to say
And that no one would ever take it away
I gave you all I had inside, baby its alright
But then you took the love right from my heart
Its funny how things so strong can fall apart
I gave you all I had inside, baby its alright, ooh
One day youll wear out the lines you always use
Why do you say that youll change when you never do?
Ive always found a reason to let it slide...baby not this time.
Ooh, because I know where youre going from here
(dont take me down with you)
Chorus:
Dont take me down (take me down with you...)
cause I dont need no one and no ones ever gonna bring me down.
Dont take me down (dont take me down with you...)
And I dont need no one and no ones ever gonna bring me down.
You had someone; you had me to love.
Why do we put up all these fronts?
Theres something about the way that you loved me once.
And why, why is it wrong to want it back again?
Oh no... one day youll wear out the lines you always use
Why do you say that youll change when you never do?
Ive always found a reason to let it slide...baby not this time.
Ooh, because I know where youre going from here
(dont take me down with you)
(chorus)
Too many times, Ive realized the truth
(dont take me down, dont take me down)
Too many times...
Ive seen enough, Ive seen it enough to know
This time youre not, youre not gonna take me down
Down, down, down, down .... yeah

I H@tE yOu! !
I hate it when you spoil my day,
I hate you when you walk away.
I hate the way you look at me,
I hate you when you say sorry.
I hate the way you at me stare,
I hate the way you touch my hair.
I hate it when you vanish my pain,
I hate it when you make me smile again.
I hate the way you at me scream,
I hate the way you sit and dream.
I hate the way you shout,
I hate it when you walk out.
I hate the way you look into my eyes,
I hate it when you speak all lies.
I hate the way you look at my face,
I hate you when you don't call at my place.
I hate it when you don't come home,
I hate you when you leave me all alone.
And i hate to break this to you,
But i gotta tell you what is true.
I don't hate you the way i should,
And i don't think i ever could! ! !

I Hate...
I hate,
hate that I can't trust
I hate,
hate that I must lie because they'd rather believe I'm fine.
I hate,
hate who I've been.
I hate,
hate to make decisions.
I hate,
hate that I can't hate those I should.
I hate,
hate my life.
I hate,
hate that I can't die.
I hate,
hate to live in fear and hate.
I hate,
hate my uncertainty.
I hate,
hate the lies people tell me.
I hate,
hate that I believe.
I hate,
hate those that wish their lives were mine.
I hate,
hate all emotion that's mine.
I hate,
hate that I need others.
I hate,
hate my own d*mn incompetence.
I hate,
hate that there's so much to hate.

Hate 2 Luv U
It was the wrong day
The wrong month
The wrong year
I wasnt ready for all the pain and all the tears
Baby you crushed me
Now I have to deal in the worst fears
You had to go and take it there
Now im all alone
Knew I should have took my ass home
Times when you were putting it on me
You were putting it on me
I just hate u for it
Hate u for making me fall in luv
And theres nothing I can do about it
So blue about
Dont wanna be in luv
I just hate u for it
Hate u for making me fall in luv
And theres nothing I can do about it
So blue about
Dont wanna be in luv
Thought I could change u
And turn u into a good man
Thought my love was bond
And things were going as I planned
But what a fool I was
U was still hitting your ex-girlfriend
I had to be out you understand
Now im all alone
Knew I should have took my ass home
Times when you were putting it on me
You were putting it on me
I just hate u for it
Hate u for making me fall in luv
And theres nothing I can do about it
So blue about
Dont wanna be in luv
I just hate u for it
Hate u for making me fall in luv
And theres nothing I can do about it
So blue about
Dont wanna be in luv
Wish that (wish that things were different)
Wish that things were different
(that you would love me the way that I love you) the way that I love you
(cant believe you hurt me babe) cant believe
(and do me this way)
(I hate to love you cant let go)
Now im all alone
Knew I should have took my ass home
Times when you were putting it on me
You were putting it on me
I just hate u for it
Hate u for making me fall in luv
And theres nothing I can do about it
So blue about
Dont wanna be in luv
I just hate u for it
Hate u for making me fall in luv
And theres nothing I can do about it
So blue about
Dont wanna be in luv
I just hate u for it
Hate u for making me fall in luv
And theres nothing I can do about it
So blue about
Dont wanna be in luv
I just hate u for it
fall in luv
do about it
So blue about
Dont wanna be in luv
I just hate u for it
Hate u for making me fall in luv
And theres nothing I can do about it
So blue about

Take Me Im Yours
You walked in the room
I saw your face and I saw you smile
A pretty girl like yourself
Youve got a new approach
And the time is right
You think youre so fine, oh so fine
And it so excites me
Come six with my nine
Youre my perfect partner
[and the times good tonight]
Chorus:
Take me Im yours
Take me Im yours
Come on now and take me
Take me amour
Take me Im yours
Come on now and take me
Oh dont you be so nice to me
Oh you cant be serious
A pretty girl like yourself
Youll be my perfect partner
[and the times good tonight]
(chorus)
I love the way you wear your hair
I saw the way you stopped and stared
When I looked at you, oh no oh no
Well maybe girls like you arent free
But baby, baby cant you see
I just wanna be with you.
You walked through the room
Continental style and sweet perfume
A pretty girl like yourself
Youve got a new approach
[and the times good tonight]

I Hate To Eat Alone
I picked myself up in a downtown bar
You know the feelin was lousy
But as Id come this far
Well its too easy to drink
When nobodys home
But I hate to eat alone
'n frozen dinners dont do much for me
When youve got t.v. on the table
'n t.v. on t.v.
All you do is chew your fingers
Down to the bone
I hate to eat alone
Like the actor whos forgotten his words
You stumble through the story line
Another place another time
When you were with me
They say the citys rotten to the core
Theres no communication with each other anymore
But we stopped talkin to each other a long time before
And I hate to eat alone
Hear it in my words
See it in my eyes
Since you went away
I wear a cheap disguise
Waitin for the mornin
Waitin on the light
Hopin for the sunshine
Before the night
I didnt tell you that I had to change
So you just took it for granted
That wed remain the same
I know that nobodys guilty
No ones to blame so I end up on my own
God I hate to eat alone
I hate to eat alone
I hate to eat alone
I hate to eat alone

I hate you, i hate you. I want you to die.
I hate you, i hate you. You make me cry.
I hate you, i hate you. You say you dont care.
I hate you, i hate you. It just isnt fair.
I hate you, i hate you. The tears will not stop.
I hate you, i hate you. One day i will pop!
I hate you, i hate you. It soon will be clear, i will learn and love not to live in fear. When your not always on my back, waiting for that day when everyone wears black. I hate you.

Cross Of Gold
Michael w. smith / wayne kirkpatrick
Where do you stand
What is your statement
What is it youre trying to say
Whats in your hand
Whats in your basement
Whats in the cards you dont play
Are you holding the key
Or are you intending
To pick the lock of heavens gate
Its confusing to me
The message youre sending
And I dont know if I can relate
Chorus:
Whats you line
Tell me why you wear your cross of gold
State of mind
Or does it find a way into your soul
Is it a flame
Is it a passion
A symbol of love living in you
Or is it a game
Religion in fashion
Some kind of pahse youre going thru
We all travel the extremes
From cellar to rafter
Looking for a place in the sun
So Im trying to see
What youre headed after
But I dont know where youre coming from
Chorus bridge: (spoken)
For some its simply something to wear around your neck
Just a chain
Jewelry
Is it decoration?
Is it an icon
Or proclomation?
An icon of what?
What?
For some its simply something to wear around your neck
Just a chain
It means a lot more than that to me

Caught Out There
Last year, valentines day, you would spoil me, say
Babe, I love you, love you and I swear
Held you when you were sick heavin
The whole time I think to myself, this isnt fair
What is this I see (no)
You dont come home to me (oh, no)
When you dont come home to me (man)
Cant deal, cant bear
You keep tellin me lies
But to your surprise
Look, I found her red coat
And youre (b****) caught out there
I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now
So sick of your games, Ill set your truck to flames
And watch it blow up, blow up, tell me (how you gonna see it now)
So far Im sincere {i love you}, fabrications in my ear
Drive me so far up the wall, I come slidin down
What is this I see (I dont believe this)
You dont come home to me
When you dont come home to me
I cant deal, cant bear (I wont)
You keep tellin me lies
But to your surprise
Look, I hope youre happy
Since youre caught out there
Yeah, youve been caught
Yo, come on
Come on
I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now
(shes so) oh, cheap, so vulgar, not me, why the hell her
Look, she dresses (look at her) a mess, what do you see (I dont know)
Its not all about cash (hell, no), nor how much you flash
How I dress is a reflection of me
What is this I see
You dont come home to me (uh-uh)
When you dont come home to me
Cant deal, cant bear (told you I wont)
You keep tellin me lies
But to your surprise
Look, I got somethin for yall
Since youre caught out there
I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now

Free Your Mind
I wear tight clothing and high heel shoes it doesnt make me a prostitute
I like rap music wear hip-hop clothes
That doesnt mean that Im sellin dope
Oh my please forgive me for having
Straight hair
It doesnt mean theres another blood in
My heirs
I might date another race or color
Doesnt mean I dont like my strong
Black brothers
Chorus:free your mind and the rest will follow, be colorblind, dont be so shallow(before you read me you gotta learn how to see me)
So Im a sista
Buy things with cash
That really doesnt mean that all my
Credit is bad,
So why dispute me and waste my time,
Because you think that the price is too
High for me
I cant look without being watched
You rang my buy before I made up my,
Mind
Oh now attitude why even bother
I cant change your mind you cant
Change my color

The Hate That I Hate
I hate the hate that resides in me now
I hate the hate that is so heavy it weighs me down
I hate the hate that keeps my emotions tightly wound
I hate the hate that charges my wall
I hate the hate that lies to strengthen my fall
I hate the hate that has me in chains
I hate the hate that courses through my veins
I hate the hate that is a shadow at my side
I hate the hate that has stolen my mind
I hate the hate that blinds me from the stars
I hate the hate that has created my war
I hate the hate that has stolen my grace
My scarlet letter written all over my face
