about

Ray and Bruce were for a brief time next door neighbors in West Hollywood. Ray wrote this at that time.

lyrics

I HATE BRUCE

When you call my name
A shower of sparks from your mouth
Say what’s on your mind
And if it’s all the same to you
I’ll watch TV and give you an answer
When the show is through.
Drawing in strength from its gut
It has to move on
Yes, I’m strong
When you’re on with me and the timing is right
Trying with all, all of your might
Well, I try to stay on with you
But my heart starts to beat and bend to the heat
As I cry:
I hate Bruce
I do
I hate Bruce

Hold on, when I see you with that hint of desire
Well, I know why, so I try
But my heart starts to beat
And I can’t explain the heat
As I shout bye bye
Bye bye baby bye bye
I hate Bruce
C’mon, Jenny take a ride now.
