Its better to hate
Reg was strumming and has got to thinking, I know he shouldn’t but he has and he thinks the governments of this world have given up on love and understanding. They now want us to hate, hate, hate, hate, be angry, put against one another the haves and the have nots, put the finger on someone else . while they sit in their ivory towers and watch the destruction they have created by their lack of governance …..and feed at the trough we have filled for them….the world is going to hell in a hand basket
Its better to hate
Some are building towers
to praise themselves
Some are taking note
to fill up the book shelves
Some are making love
blind to it all
the TV shows the picture of the world
is whey too small
Everyone is anxious
Dreading a new world war
The lover says love will conquer us all
But they point the finger call him a fool
Tell him he’s knows nothing at all
Theres more to life than procreate
Dooesn’t he know its better to hate
Don’t he know its better to hate
Don’t he know its better to
Don’t he know its better to hate
So its illegal agains legit
Go and close up the gate
Too many in
They tell us straight
But the plan is secret
Its to open the gate
Let everyone in
so we can learn to hate
Yeah their going to open up the gate
so everybody hates
They like to turn us on each other
So they can single someone out
Keeping an eye on us all from the cameras above
Get us fighting and away from love
Don’t they realise
life is
tough enough
All they want to do is put us against each other and let us fight it out
Yeah
Don’t you know
Its better to hate
Don’t you know
Don’t you know
Its better to hate
Its better to hate
Its better to hate
Some are building towers
to praise themselves
Some are taking note
to fill up the magazines on the shelve
Some are making love
blind to it all
the TV shows the picture of the world
is whey too small
Everyone is anxious
Dreading the new world war
The lover says love will conquer us all
But they point the finger call him a fool
Tell him he’s knows nothing at all
Theres more to life than procreate
Doesn’t he know its better to hate
Don’t you know
Don’t you know
Don’t you know
Don’t you know
Don’t you know
Don’t you know its better to hate
I love how raw this is. The vocal performance is incredibly sharp but the phrasing is so incredibly chaotic in the verse sections, like I have no idea what rhythm or meter the lyrics are following by the time you get to the hook and then it's just snapped right back into the flow. I'm not sure if this is a demo, but keep that, it really works.
