[Verse 1]
Well, I'm happy, but I'm also sad
'Cause I liked her smile, but the sex was bad
She said, "Can I ask a favour?"
I said, "I hope it's nothing major"
'Cause I got things on
It's where it all went wrong

[Pre-Chorus]
And who knows?
Who knows?

[Chorus]
Well, it could've been good
Well, it could've been great
Well, it could've been good
But everybody needs someone to hate
Could've been good
Well, it could've been great
Well, it could've been good
But everybody

[Verse 2]
Well, I speak in riddles, and she speaks in tongue
Playing a fool, 'cause I'm acting dumb
Situation's kinda heavy
Sign me up onto the levy
'Cause she's not the one
Did it all for fun
[Pre-Chorus]
And who knows?
Who knows?

[Chorus]
Well, it could've been good
Well, it could've been great
Well, it could've been good
But everybody needs someone to hate
Could've been good
Well, it could've been great
Well, it could've been good
But everybody

[Bridge]
Hate me
Crave me
Hate me
Crave me
Hate, whoa

[Chorus]
'Cause it could've been good, well, it could've been great
Well, it could've been good, well, it could've been great
Well, it could've been good, well, it could've been great
Well, it could've been good, well, it could've been great
[Outro]
Well, I said, everybody needs someone to hate
'Cause I said, everybody needs someone to hate
Well, I said, everybody needs someone to hate
Everybody, I said, everybody needs someone to, someone to hate
Needs someone to hate
