Lyrics
The Stand
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hey (hey hey)
Tell me your weakness
Oh I keep it a secret
Oh come on just one vice
All right, it's vodka on ice
But then there's women on bikes
Or just the women who straddle
Oh now you are a handfull
I forgot about handfulls
Tell me your fears
Okay, it's everyone here
You mean just all of the people?
Yeah, and all of their peers
And all of their pets, and their chandeliers
And their cigarettes
I haven't smoked in years
I can hardly stand the sight (of it all)
I can hardly stand the sound (of it all)
I can hardly stand the taste (of it all)
I can hardly stand the smell (of it all)
Talk about space
Well it's a beautiful place
But it's so damn cold
Just for the human race
But for the planets and the stars
And everything else and mars
It's like paradise
Spread out with a butter knife
I can hardly stand, I can hardly stand
Everyone's f*cked and they don't even know
Everyone's f*cked and they don't even know
I can hardly stand, I can hardly stand
Everybody's fucked and they don't even know
Everybody's fucked and they don't even know
