Lyrics
I like to fuck but no French Letter
Without a condom, the sex is better
But every time I get it in
A baby cries and sometimes twins
I have six kids and I don't like it
They eat too much and treat me like shit
They only wear Posh label cloth
If you give one hand, they bite off both
And all my friends, they have big cars
Big mansions too and smoke the fine cigars
They have deep pockets, I don't know why
I look at my purse and start to cry
I hate my life and I hate you
I hate my wife and her boyfriend too
I hate to hate and I hate that
I hate my life so very bad
I hate my kids, never thought
That I'd praise abort
Praise abort
Praise abort
I like to fuck but no French letter
'Cause without kids life is so much better
So in the end I got forced
To stay away from female intercourse
I hate my life and I hate you
I hate my wife and her boyfriend too
I hate to hate and I hate that
I hate my life so very bad
I hate my kids, never thought
That I'd praise abort
Praise abort
Praise abort
Say goodbye, say goodbye
We rise up, up to the sky
Say goodbye, we'll come back
Soon as pretty butterflies
Make you cry
I hate my life and I hate you
I hate my wife and my boyfriend too
I hate to hate and I hate that
I hate myself so very bad
I hate my offspring, never thought
That I'd praise abort
I'd praise abort
I'd praise abort
