Learning How To Hate
Rubber band, you're like a rubber band-
You keep on snapping back at me
So this is jealousy
Hollow vase, you are a hollow vase
And when you talk to yourself
You hear an answer back
What type of world are you living in?
What type of sweet thing
Would make the medicine better?
What type of world are you waiting for?
You give me one of those headaches
One drink won't take away
Learning how to hate
Rumour true, rumour false-
It's all the same to you
On cloud cockoo
And every mistake that I've ever made
Comes back to haunt me
My own fools gallery
What type of world are you living in?
What type of sweet thing
Would make the medicine better?
What kind of world are you waiting for?
You give me one of those headaches
One drink won't take away
Learning how to hate
Our clam chowder comes without the powder-
It doesn't happen here
This is a nice place
What type of world are you living in?
What type of sweet thing
Would make the medicine better?
What kind of world are you waiting for?
You give me one of those headaches
One drink won't take away
Learning how to hate
Learning how to hate
(Learning how to hate)
