If I had a doll of you
I’d sprinkle it with roses
And morning dew
Oh, oh, oh, oh
But if I’m being honest and true
I’d rather put you in the freezer
And watch you turn blue
But thank you for keeping my head on straight
Everybody needs a target to focus their hate
And thank you, thank you for raising the bar
It’s so good to know
You’re still as sick as you are
So thank you, thank you
For fucking my dream
For every bad decision
And hiring the wrong team
You’re the Chevrolet of shit
And the caviar of creep
You know I count your mistakes
When I can’t get to sleep
You’re the prime example
Of what to avoid
So thank you for filling the hate void
Hey - ho I hate you so
And thank you - thank you for making me wait
Thank you for inspiring my first song of hatе
Without you, I’d rely on people from long ago
But you’rе still fresh in my mind
So stick around and watch the hate grow
Hey - ho I hate you so
It’s funny how you always kept your eye on the prize
But you never saw fit to apologize
Now if you want to swing by
And talk about it some more
My door is always open
But it’s a trapdoor
Hey - ho I’m down below
I’m stoking the furnace
Where the bad eggs go
But let’s get this real straight
I don’t mean you any harm
But if I ever see you coming
I’ll raise the alarm
And I’m tempted to run away and hide
Don’t you dare
'Cause this whole thing’s been eating me up
Eating me up
You took advantage of me
You took advantage
It’s my own fault
I should’ve followed my gut
It’s my own fault
I got a head butt
It’s my own fault
I should’ve done the diligence
And I should shoulder some of the blame
And got the evidence
It’s your own fault
I should’ve asked for a reference
It’s your own fault
I didn’t see the malevolence
It’s your own fault
So you should shoulder some of the blame
And thank you - thank you
For giving me space
For crawling back under your stone
Where I can’t see your face
And thank you - thank you
For enriching my life
With the cruel education
Without a second’s hesitation
Thank you
For poisoning every good thing I ever knew
Thank you
For pulling the wool over my eyes too
But if it walks like a duck, it’s a duck
And if it quacks like a duck, it’s a small-time crook, so suck
Hey ho I’m down below, on this
I’m stoking the furnace
Where the bad eggs go
I got a spy in the queue, up above, in the know
And when you roll down the chute
We’ll be humping the bellows
And it’ll be time to gloat
Hey Ho, Hey Ho
Time to gloat
Hey Ho, Hey
It’s my own fault
There’s a great bell
It’s my own fault
Underneath the earth
It’s my own fault
That tolls whenever the dead give birth
It’s my own fault
To souls like yours
It’s your own fault
To no applause
It’s my own fault
So I keep the furnace doors
Open in welcome
You took a piece of my soul
And left me with a black hole
I watched you botch and bungle
Cheat and fumble
Ego on fire to loser rumbled
You took a piece of my soul
And left me in a black hole
And it’s all on me cos nothing’s ever your fault, is it?
Hey Ho I’m down below - I hate you so
I’m stoking the furnace
Where the bad eggs go
Look at me!
Hey Ho, I’m down, below - I hate you so
I’m stoking the furnace
Where the bad eggs go
Look at me!
Look at me!
Look at me - I dare you!
Hey Ho I’m down below - I hate you so
I’m stoking the furnace
Where the bad eggs go
Look at me!
Look at me!
Look at me - I dare you!
Hey Ho I’m down below - I hate you so
I’m stoking the furnace
Where the bad eggs go
Hey!
Hey!
Look at me - I dare you!
Heh, heh
Look at me
I dare you
Heh, heh
Look at me
I fuckin’ dare you!
