The Lyrics
I've always hated this song, so finally I decided to "fix" it, and tell the world what I really think of them at the same time!
You've known me a while, and you say
You think you might like me
But I'm sure I don't like you
Never will, and what's more
I'll never trust you, 'cause everybody lies
And that's why I hate you, so much
It seems everyone is bad
No matter how long I've known them
I'm not giving you a chance (no way, no way)
Even though you seem OK (no way)
If you think I'm being unfair
Cynical, well too bad
'Cause everybody lies
And that's why I hate you
Everybody lies
Won't take a chance, oh no
Not worth the risk
I would rather be alone
Yeah, yeah, yeah, than hear one more lie
I hate children too, that's because
I know they're liars too
The human race can die out
That's OK, I don't mind
'Cause everybody lies, so much
Everybody lies
And that's why I hate you, so much
We're never going to date, no way
So go away, go away, go away, go away
Go away, go away, go away, go away
Everybody lies
You, you, you, you, you...even you
You think you might like me
But I'm sure I don't like you
Never will, and what's more
I'll never trust you, 'cause everybody lies
And that's why I hate you, so much
It seems everyone is bad
No matter how long I've known them
I'm not giving you a chance (no way, no way)
Even though you seem OK (no way)
If you think I'm being unfair
Cynical, well too bad
'Cause everybody lies
And that's why I hate you
Everybody lies
Won't take a chance, oh no
Not worth the risk
I would rather be alone
Yeah, yeah, yeah, than hear one more lie
I hate children too, that's because
I know they're liars too
The human race can die out
That's OK, I don't mind
'Cause everybody lies, so much
Everybody lies
And that's why I hate you, so much
We're never going to date, no way
So go away, go away, go away, go away
Go away, go away, go away, go away
Everybody lies
You, you, you, you, you...even you
