I Can’t Stand It

Lyrics

[Verse 1] In another situation In another kind of world With another set of rules I'd have been the King of England Not the "King of the Blues" I'm down here on the new plantation With the idle rich and the idle poor And the suffering masses lining up for the cure [Chorus] I can't stand it I can't take another day I can't stand it But I guess I've got to take it anyway [Verse 2] I heard about a new religion Where the money talks And the women scream And the people worship the wildest tings It's such a transparent proposition You can rule the world You can be the one You can have peace and safety And fun, fun, fun (But it's done with mirrors) [Chorus] I can't stand it I can't take another day I can't stand it But I guess I've got to take it anyway [Verse 1] In another situation In another kind of world With another set of rules I'd have been the King of England Not competing for the title of the "King of the Blues" [Chorus] I can't stand it I can't take another day I can't stand it But I guess I've got to take it I can't stand it I can't take another day I can't stand it But I guess I've got to take it anyway [Outro] Anyway Anyway I can't stand it I can't stand it
