I'D LIKE TO HATE MYSELF IN THE MORNING
(John Meyer)


Judy Garland - 1968
Shirley Bassey - 1971
Margaret Whiting - 1982
Linda Eder - 2005



I'd like to hate myself in the morning
And raise a little hell tonight
I've got the urge to carouse
And maybe raise a few brows
Cut loose and pull all the stops out
Who cares if they call the cops out

I'd like to wake at noon feeling guilty
And know somehow that something isn't quite right
I'd like to hate myself in the morning
And raise a little hell tonight

I'd like to hate myself in the morning
And raise a little hell tonight
I've got the urge to carouse
And maybe raise a few brows
Cut loose and pull all the stops out
Who cares if they call the cops out

I'd like to wake at noon feeling guilty
And know somehow that something isn't quite right
I'd like to lift my head in the morning
And wonder who I kissed
And wonder who I missed
I just might hate myself in the morning
But what a dandy time I'll have tonight!
