Kinks - Hatred Lyrics
You keep on accusing meOf making your life miseryBut if that's not abusing me, what isn'tYou wanna be my friend, well it's too lateMy love for you has turned to hateAnd i think that it's a permanent conditionYou say you wanna make the peaceSmile and turn the other cheekI can't put myself in such a weak positionNow i'm willing to accept this fateYou and me just can't cohabitateWe agree to hate and that's our fast decisionHatred, hatredIs the only thing that keeps us togetherHatred, hatredIs the only thing that lasts foreverDriven by hate, driven by hateDriven by hate, driven by hateOn the surface i'm a mild-mannered personThat's until you scratch the animal insideThen you bring out all my animal aggressionI gotta hatred for you that is never gonna dieDriven to hate, driven to hateDriven to hate, driven to hateChorus:Hatred, hatredIs the only thing that lasts foreverHatred, hatredIs the only thing that keeps us togetherWhile races try to integrateNations try to gravitateTowards equal rights, regardless of religionPoliticians might decreeFor the sake of humanityLove and peace instead of a collisionYou and me accept realityThere's no way that we can agreeThe world can't make us alter this positionAt least you and i know where we standWe can't be friends, walk hand in handMy hostility for you defies descriptionHatred, hatredIs the only thing that keeps us togetherHatred, hatredIs the only thing that lasts foreverDriven by hate, driven by hateDriven by hate, driven by hateHate's the only thing we have in commonThere's no escape, we'll always be this waySo we might as well just learn to live together'cos we're gonna be this way till our dying dayDriven by hate, driven by hateDriven by hate, driven by hateChorusIf you keep on putting me downRub my name into the groundI'll drag the dirt all over town about youAnd if you spread the filth on meI'll only have one remedyI'll spill the beans, you'll see i've got a mouth, tooChorus (2x)Yeah, hatredYour attitude is downright rudeYour jokes appall me, they're so crudeWhy don't you just drop dead and don't recoverI'm the mirror to your moodYou hate me and i hate youSo at least we understand each otherHatred, hatred is the only thing that lasts, what is it?Hatred, hatredHatred, hatredIs the only thing that lasts foreverHatred, hatredIs the only thing that lasts forever
