Dum Dums - I Can't Stand It Lyrics

It seems my friends we've drunk our lives away
(Doo, doo, doo, doo)
I can't stand it, I can't stand it
But I'm so numb there's nothing I can say
(Doo doo, doo, doo)
I can't stand it, I can't stand it

And I'm dancing to a song that I can't stand
(Doo doo, doo, doo)
I can't stand it, I can't stand it
And I need a drink to make it all seem grand
(Doo doo, doo, doo)
I can't stand it, I can't stand it

And the gray-haired men in business suits
Shoot up behind their walls, to suit it all
And the kids get stoned to pass the time
When I'm too sad to cry
I can't stand being alive

Oh, something heavy's going down at home
(Doo doo, doo, doo)
I can't stand it, I can't stand it
And I hang out with my friends so I'm not alone
(Doo doo, doo, doo)
I can't stand it, I can't stand it

And there's no guard outside the gates of hell
(Doo doo, doo, doo)
I can't stand it, I can't stand it
And if I'm so free why does it feel like a prison cell
(Doo doo, doo, doo)
I can't stand it, I can't stand it

I'm so bored and something's wrong inside
A pain I'm trying to hide, with a phony smile
Alone with you talking about stupid things
Under a fading sun
But before I think we're getting drunk again

I can't stand it, ah
I can't stand it, ah
Oh, I can't stand it, ah
Oh, I can't stand it, oh
