Lyrics

I CAN'T STAND IT
 (TONIO K/BOB ROSE/NIGEL HARRISON)

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 ...

*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 ANWAY

I HEARD ABOUT A NEW RELIGION

WHERE THE MONEY TALKS

AND THE WOMEN SCREAM

AND THE PEOPLE WORSHIP THE WILDEST THINGS

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)

*AND I CAN'T STAND IT...
