[Verse 1]
Since I'm putting down
All of the true things around, but I like it
Handed down my crown
Given the jewels and the answers of May
The thought of being ousted
Comes and goes, comes and goes
When I think about it, the wind blows

[Hook]
Hate it, hate it
Hate it, hate it
Hate it, hate it
Hate it

[Verse 2]
Run me out of town
Somewhere a move might intended a gown at
Pissed at all the bowels
Always the blues and a delicate smile
Missed all of the sideways
Gull and noun, gull and noun
Chills and petty band-aids, wrapped around

[Hook]
Hate it, hate it
Hate it, hate it
Hate it, hate it
Hate it

[Bridge]
Good grief
Good grief

[Verse 1]
Since I'm putting down
All of the true things around, but I like it
Handed down my crown
Given the jewels and the answers of May
The thought of being ousted
Comes and goes, comes and goes
When I think about it, the wind blows

[Hook]
Hate it, hate it
Hate it, hate it
Hate it, hate it
Hate it

Foo Fighters

Foo Fighters are an American rock band formed in 1995 by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl. Originally a solo project by him to overcome the grief of Kurt Cobain’s death, Grohl attracted label interest with his inaugural demo tape.

According to Dave Grohl, the band is named after the UFOs that were reported by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II.

I was reading a lot of books on UFOs. Not only is it a fascinating subject, but there’s a treasure trove of band names in those UFO books! So, since I had recorded the first record by myself, playing all the instruments, but I wanted people to think that it was a group, I figured that FOO FIGHTERS might lead people to believe that it was more than just one guy. Silly, huh?
