Lyrics

H-A-T-E
Is that how you spell love
In your dictionary
K-I-C-K
Pronounced as kind
F-U-C-K
Is that how you spell friend
In your dictionary
Black on black
A guidebook for the blind
Well now that I can see
My eyes won't weep
Now that I can hear
Your song sounds cheap
Now that I can talk
All your corn I'll reap
I'm not so sure that Joey
Wed a Virgin Mary
There are no words for me
Inside your dictionary S-L-A-P
Is that how you spell kiss
In your dictionary
C-O-L-D
Pronounced as care
S-H-I-T
Is that how you spelt me
In your dictionary
Four-eyed fool
You led 'round everywhere
Now that I can see
It's the queen's new clothes
Now that I can hear
All your poison prose
Now that I can talk
With my tongue unfroze
I'm not so sure of Santa
Or the buck tooth fairy
There are no words for me
Inside your dictionary Now your
laughter has a hollow ring
But the hollow ring
Has no finger in
So let's close the book
And let the day begin
And our marriage be undone
