It's a dirty word,
If you know what I mean.
It's a nasty, awful word,
It's terrible and obscene.
It's the type of word,
You just don't want to hear.
It's an ugly, gruesome, wretched word.
It's unkind to the ear.
It's a four-letter word,
And it can only infuriate.
What's this negative, cold, cruel word?
I'll tell you; it is hate.
