Peter Gene Hernandez (born October 8, 1985), better known by his stage name Bruno Mars, is an American singer-songwriter and record producer. Raised in Honolulu, Hawaii by a family of musicians, Mars began making music at a young age. He performed in various musical venues in his hometown throughout his childhood. He graduated from high school and then moved to Los Angeles, California to pursue a musical career. Mars produced songs for other artists, joining production team The Smeezingtons.
Mars had an unsuccessful stint with Motown Records, but then signed with Atlantic Records in 2009. He became recognized as a solo artist after lending his vocals and co-writing the hooks for the songs "Nothin' on You" by B.o.B, and "Billionaire" by Travie McCoy. He also co-wrote the hits "Right Round" by Flo Rida featuring Ke$ha, and "Wavin' Flag" by K'naan. In October 2010, he released his debut album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans. Anchored by the worldwide number-one singles "Just the Way You Are" and "Grenade", the album peaked at number three on the Billboard 200. Mars was nominated for seven Grammys at the 53rd Grammy Awards, winning Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for "Just the Way You Are".
Why do you hate him
Why did you make him leave
There's nothing wrong with him
Why do you hate him
You want him crucified
Is it the way he looks
Or the way he speaks his mind
Never hear this song playing on the radio
O There's nothing wrong with him
But it's you and your friends
Never hear this song playing on the radio
All you ever did was talk about her
She's done what she had to do
Having to raise two kids without a father
You just stood by idly watched her suffer
You think you're something special
Boy you blew it! This conversation's over...
Never hear this song playing on the radio
There's nothing wrong with her
But it's you and your friends
Fuck you and your friends
