Stranglers

Stranglers - The Man They Love To Hate lyrics

They woke to grey English morning

And to a strange honeymoon

The girl who gave him all her love

And the man who said it still wouldn't do

His parents always worked hard

Never went to bed late

And though they were God's own people

They're still the ones he loves to hate

He never wanted to

Suffer this fate

All the girls have fallen for

The man they love to hate

The city is an animal

It snores and by day it roars

And though he loved to hate it

He couldn't live without its flaws

With pastel curtains moaning

At a thousand harsh words - then hush

The girl she wanted to leave

Because she loved the man too much

He never wanted to

Suffer this fate

All the girls have fallen for

The man they love to hate

His father was a fighter

And he practised on his son

His mother was just some furniture

Who'd lost the will to run

The girl she wrote him a farewell note

And though he probably didn't care too much

The girl she finally left him

Because she loved the man too much
