I Hate Seagulls

(album: My Best Friend Is You - 2010)

I hate seagulls and I hate being sick
I hate burning my finger on the toaster and I hate nits
I hate falling over
I hate grazing my knee
I hate picking off the scab a little bit too early
I hate getting toothache
I hate when it's a piss-take
I hate all the mistakes I make
I hate rude ignorant bastards
And I hate snobbery
I hate anyone, who if I was serving chips wouldn't talk to me

But

I have a friend, with whom I'd like to spend anytime I can find
With ... I like sleeping in your bed
I like knowing what is going on inside your head
I like taking time and I like your mind
And I like when your hand is in mine
I like getting drunk on the dunes by the beach
I like picking strawberries
I like cream-teas
And I like reading ... ghost-stories
And my heart skips a beat everytime that we meet
It's been a while and now your smile is almost like a memory
But then you're back and I am fine 'cause you're with me
And I'm in love with you
And I can't find the words to make it sound unique
But honestly you make me strong
I can't believe I've found someone this kind
I hope we carry on
'cause you're so nice and I'm in love with you
