Analysis of 10 Things I hate About You



I hate the way you talk to me,
and the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car,
I hate it when you stare.
I hate your big dumb combat boots,
and the way you read my mind.
I hate you so make is makes me sick,
I even makes me rhyme.
I hate the way you're always right,
I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh,
even worse when you make me cry.
I hate it when you're not around,
and the fact you didn't call.
But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you,
not even close,
not even a little bit,
not even at all.
