The Misanthrope Song

(Being a song for misanthropes, or people who have just had a really bad day.) I hate the world and everyone in it, I hate the world and everyone here, I hate the world and everyone in it, I hate, yes, I hate the world. I hate the world and the busy-bodies, I hate their words, they’re so full of crap, nothing but sound with no wisdom in it, I’ve hear more than enough crap. I hate the world and all the dang hipsters, pretentious bands and unruly beards, I hate those fools downing in irony, and I really hate their beer. I hate the world and its politicians, lying scum-bags, power-hungry gits, they do nothing but get in a man’s way, I’m so tired of their sh-t. I hate the world and all the damn hippies, socialist fools detached from the world, say they want peace but kill if they’re questioned, their smell make me wanna hurl. I hate the world and those dumb professors, in their tower they can’t see how things are, turning our kids to socialist zombies, doomed to not go very far. Ugh…what a world, am I right? Hey, wait—here comes my German Shepherd! I love the world and all the dogs in it…
