he was sitting there beside me throwing doubles down
when he ordered up his third one he looked around
then he looked at me said i do believe i’ll have one more
he said i hate this bar and i hate to drink
but on second thought tonight i think i hate everything
then he opened up his billfold and threw a 0 down
and the faded photograph fell out and hit the ground
and i picked it up he said thank you bud i put it in his hand
he said i probably ought to throw this one away
cause she’s the reason i feel this way i hate everything
i hate my job i hate my life and if it weren’t for my two kids i’d hate my exwife
i know i should move on and try to start again
but i just can’t get over her leaving me for him
then he shook his head and looked down at his ring and said i hate everything
he said one bedroom apartment where i get my mail
is really not a home it’s more like a jail
with a swimming pool and a parking lot view man that’s just great
i hate summer winter fall and spring
red and yellow purple blue and green i hate everything
so i pulled out my phone and i called my house
i said babe i’m coming home we’re gonna work this out
i paid for his drinks and i told him thanks thanks for everything
