You keep on accusing me of making music misery.
And if that's not amusing me, what isn't?
You wanna put hatred on your plate?
Well, looking foolish is your fate.
And I think that it's a damn foolish decision.

You say of me you want a piece?
Look at the cash I made this week
Despite your never-ending great derision!
You're pulling hair out of your pate
and all you do is denigrate
this complicated Canuck inquisition!

Hatred, hatred is the only thing that keeps you living.
Hatred, hatred is the only thing that you've been giving.

Driven by hate, driven by hate, driven by hate, driven by hate!
On the surface you're a very tasteful person.
That's until my music finds your ears and goes inside.
There's others that will make the radio worsen!
You got a hatred for me that is never gonna die.
Driven to hate, driven to hate, driven to hate, driven to hate!

While races try to integrate, nations try to gravitate
you throw me hate, is that your religion?
Chretien, he might agree, Alliance even does, you see
'cause your emotion is like nuclear fission!
You just can't accept reality
that you ain't no better than me.
God made it that way, can't change His decision.
At least you and I know where we stand
and you can just talk to the hand
and you'll just have another big conniption!

Hatred, hatred is the only thing that keeps you living.
Hatred, hatred is the only thing that you've been giving.

Driven by hate! Driven by hate! Driven by hate! Driven by hate!
You and Hitler had that in common!
There's no escape, you'll always be that way!
So you might as well just hear my songs forever
'cause I'm gonna rock your world 'til my dying day!

Driven by hate! Driven by hate! Driven by hate! Driven by hate!
Hatred, hatred is the only thing that keeps you living.
Hatred, hatred is the only thing that you've been giving.

If you keep on putting me down, rub my name into the ground
I've got some news: It will backfire on you.
Your dirty laundry is displayed
like chicks from "Lady Marmalade!"
'Cause you know full well that I've got a mouth, too!

Hatred, hatred is the only thing that keeps you living.
Hatred, hatred is the only thing that you've been giving.

Yeah, hatred.
Your attitude is downright rude
but see these crowds? I don't get booed!
Why don't you look at this magazine cover?
Who cares about sullen mood?
You hate me, well, boy, you're screwed!
So at least we understand each other!
Your dumb hatred is the only thing that lasts! What is it?
Stupid! Stupid!

Hatred, hatred is the only thing that keeps you living.
Hatred, hatred is the only thing that you've been giving.
