Mr. Norton/I Hate by The Szuters Lyrics

I was sampling sunshine
Listened to the birds as they called to say
It was Mr. Norton coming to call
Blue skies gone away

He was ever so tragic
And I couldn't quite make out the face
But I knew it was the end of it all
He had lost his place

Hey, Mr. Norton!
They left you holding a fortune
And it came crumbling down around your dirty head

Hey, Mr. Norton!
Can you really afford to?
'Cause I'll take you down
If you can get any further down

There was something about him
The air of a man who hadn't clues
So I punched up everything I could find
I was not amused
And he said: You could make it
Make it all the way to the top with me
But I knew it was the end of it all
It was not to be

Hey, Mr. Norton!
You must be really important
To have this world revolve around your dirty head

Hey, Mr. Norton!
Are you a living abortion?
'Cause I'll take you down
If you can get any further down

Hey, Mr. Norton!
You must be really important
To have this world revolve around your dirty head

Hey, Mr. Norton!
Is that wisdom you're snorting?
'Cause I'll take you down
As if you can get any further down

Crumbling down
Crumbling around your head
Crumbling down
Crumbling around your head

Hey, Mr. Norton!
Hey, Mr. Norton! (Mr. Norton)
Hey, Mr. Norton! (Mr. Norton, Mr. Norton)
Hey, Mr. Norton!

Hey, Mr. Norton!
(You won't be coming around, no more)
Hey, Mr. Norton!
(Mr. Norton, no)

I was younger
I was dumb
I was happy as hell

Couldn't see it
Couldn't hear it
Couldn't smell the smell

Overwhelmed
I hate!

Human nature is the key to the weight of the world
Human nature is the key to the weight of the world
I hate!

I'm thinking myself sick!
Thinking myself sick!
I'm sinking myself quick
I'm thinking myself sick

I spy black in the cracks of your pretty shells
Is it God or the Devil?
Is so hard to tell

I hate!
Therefore I am...
I hate!
Therefore I am...

I hate!
Hate!
