Kinks - Hatred текст песни

You keep on accusing me

Of making your life misery

But if thats not abusing me, what isnt

You wanna be my friend, well its too late

My love for you has turned to hate

And I think that its a permanent condition

You say you wanna make the peace

Smile and turn the other cheek

I cant put myself in such a weak position

Now Im willing to accept this fate

You and me just cant cohabitate

We agree to hate and thats our fast decision

Hatred, hatred

Is the only thing that keeps us together

Hatred, hatred

Is the only thing that lasts forever

Driven by hate, driven by hate

Driven by hate, driven by hate

On the surface Im a mild-mannered person

Thats until you scratch the animal inside

Then you bring out all my animal aggression

I gotta hatred for you that is never gonna die

Driven to hate, driven to hate

Driven to hate, driven to hate

Chorus:

Hatred, hatred

Is the only thing that lasts forever

Hatred, hatred

Is the only thing that keeps us together

While races try to integrate

Nations try to gravitate

Towards equal rights, regardless of religion

Politicians might decree

For the sake of humanity

Love and peace instead of a collision

You and me accept reality

Theres no way that we can agree

The world cant make us alter this position

At least you and I know where we stand

We cant be friends, walk hand in hand

My hostility for you defies description

Hatred, hatred

Is the only thing that keeps us together

Hatred, hatred

Is the only thing that lasts forever

Driven by hate, driven by hate

Driven by hate, driven by hate

Hates the only thing we have in common

Theres no escape, well always be this way

So we might as well just learn to live together

cos were gonna be this way till our dying day

Driven by hate, driven by hate

Driven by hate, driven by hate

Chorus

If you keep on putting me down

Rub my name into the ground

Ill drag the dirt all over town about you

And if you spread the filth on me

Ill only have one remedy

Ill spill the beans, youll see Ive got a mouth, too

Chorus (2x)

Yeah, hatred

Your attitude is downright rude

Your jokes appall me, theyre so crude

Why dont you just drop dead and dont recover

Im the mirror to your mood

You hate me and I hate you

So at least we understand each other

Hatred, hatred is the only thing that lasts, what is it?

Hatred, hatred

Hatred, hatred

Is the only thing that lasts forever

Hatred, hatred

Is the only thing that lasts forever
