I hate men. I can't abide 'em even now and then. Than ever marry one of them, I'd rest a virgin rather, For husbands are a boring lot and only give you bother. Of course, I'm awfully glad that Mother had to marry Father, But I hate men. Of all the types I've ever met within our democracy, I hate the most the athlete with his manner bold and brassy, He may have hair upon his chest but, sister, so has Lassie. Oh, I hate men! I hate men. Their worth upon this earth I dinna ken. Avoid the trav'ling salesman though a tempting Tom he may be, From China he will bring you jade and perfume from Araby, But don't forget 'tis he who'll have the fun and thee the baby, Oh I hate men. If thou shouldst wed a businessman, be wary, oh, be wary. He'll tell you he's detained in town on business necessary, His bus'ness is the bus'ness which he gives his secretary, Oh I hate men!
