I Love and Despise You

about

I think this was the second ever track I recorded in the studio, and the first one I recorded with multiple instruments. Anyway, enjoy this song based on the many couples I know with troubled relationships!

lyrics

I know this girl
And I guess that I’m kind of seein’ her
And maybe things have gotten wild once in a while
But that’s not always good

I’ll admit she’s the best thing that ever happened to me
But sometimes, she is also the worst thing
And at those times, I wanna buzz her head off
With a chainsaw!

She’s driving me crazy, she’s making me insane
Depleting the braincells stored in my brain
Beautiful know-it-all
We make out and then we brawl
Now I don’t know what to do
I both love and I despise you

When I’m trying to sleep
She always wakes me up and I have to leave
And by the end of the night, I’m sleeping outside
And it ticks me off!

We are very far from being the perfect couple
Because to tell you the truth, we hate each other
And I have to bring a football helmet when we struggle
And bring a chainsaw!

She’s driving me crazy, she’s making me insane
Depleting the braincells stored in my brain
Beautiful know-it-all
We make out and then we brawl
Now I don’t know what to do
I both love and I despise you

You tell me ‘bout an on-and-off relationship
Brother, listen, I can really tell you ‘bout it
Every time we argue, she says, “Don’t give me no lip,”
And kisses me and says, “Whatcha gonna do ‘bout it?”
But somehow, we have learned to stand each other
Yet I still don’t know how she stands her mother
One day I was so made that I flew to Mars
And spent Christmas Eve underneath the stars
But that’s another story entirely
I gotta go now; wait, just one more thing

I’ll admit she’s the best thing that ever happened to me
But sometimes, she is also the worst thing
And at those times, I wanna buzz her head off
With a chainsaw!

She’s driving me crazy, she’s making me insane
Depleting the braincells stored in my brain
Beautiful know-it-all
We make out and then we brawl
Now I don’t know what to do
I both love and I despise you
I both love and I despise you
