I Hate You
Henderson Scott Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spoken-
Sweetheart, you know it's been awhile -
Something that's been on my mind that I really needed to express to you....
I must tell you how I really feel....

Oh you are an angel
An angel sent from hell
Your mouth like a sailor
Your cheap cosmetic smell

Darling you are a loser
It's you I love to kill

Darling you ruined my life
So I hate you and I always will

From your implants that failed
To the milkman that you nailed
It's been you, it's been you
That's tried to make me lose my mind

Well, you come on so tough
And then you can't get it up
And if you do
Then it's still hard to find

You cheap little ho'
Slippin' out the back door
You go out with any man
For a nickel or a dime

You no workin bum
You never made me come
Yeah, I faked it
Each and every time
Oh you are a big fat couch-sittin' sport-watchin' alky
Corona's by the keg

Oh darlin' I'll stop my drinking
If you'll only shave your legs

It's too bad your mama wasn't on the pill

Leave my mother out of this

Darling you ruined my life
So I hate you and I always will
Darling you ruined my life
So I hate you and I always will

You ruined my life
So I hate you and I always will

Sweetheart, I hate you





I hate you too, baby

Overall Meaning

The song "I Hate You" by Henderson Scott is a confrontational and brutal expression of hatred towards an ex-lover. The opening lines set the tone for the song, with the singer acknowledging that it has been a while since they've spoken, but now feels the need to express their true feelings. It is a song that is full of venomous, angry lyrics towards their former partner.


The singer paints a vivid picture of the other person, describing them as having a mouth like a sailor, and reeking of cheap cosmetics. They refer to the ex-lover as an "angel sent from hell," suggesting that while they may appear beautiful and charming, they are actually destructive and hurtful. The chorus repeats the line "Darling you ruined my life, so I hate you and I always will," driving home the message that the relationship left them in a state of misery.


The verses contain specific accusations, such as failed implants and infidelity with the milkman, to illustrate the ways in which this person has caused the singer pain. The song also takes jabs at the ex-lover's sexual prowess, calling them a "cheap little ho," and mocking their inability to perform sexually. The song culminates with the singer declaring their hatred and ending with the ex-lover's agreement, presumably leaving both parties to move on from the toxic relationship.
