Send "The Man They Love To Hate" Ringtone to Cell

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
