the book of hate: a parody by gardega

Here are the lyrics to a wonderful song called the book of love. (Gabriel does and amazing version FYI)

lyrics by the magnetic fields

The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures,
and instructions for dancing
But I
I love it when you read to me
And you
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it's just transcendental
Some of it's just really dumb
But I
I love it when you sing to me
And you
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
But I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
You ought to give me wedding rings



The book of hate by gardega

the book of hate
is damn good reading
Im glad I bought the damn thing
all those tourists in NYC
or lada gaga when she sings
And I hate it when you block the doorway
or take three days at the cash machine
The book of hate is damn good reading
and written very long ago
its full of crap and abstract paintings
or another f*&%ng reality show
And I hate it when your cell phone rings
and you talk out loud about nothing
If you cant walk straight why are you breathing?
you know I have somewhere to go.
the book of hate is good beach reading
bring it everywhere you go
I hate it when your cell phone rings
or people when they call me 'yo"
I hope you choke on a chicken wing....

all apologies to the fine band who wrote the original..
