Can't Stand Me Now Songtext
von The Libertines

An ending fitting for the start
You twisted and tore our love apart
Your light fingers threw the dart
Shattered the lamp and into the darkness cast us

No, you′ve got it the wrong way 'round
You shut me up and blamed it on the brown
Cornered the boy, kicked out at the world
The world kicked back a lot fuckin′ harder now

If you wanna try, if you wanna try
There's no worse you could do, oh, oh, oh
I know you lie, I know you lie
I'm still in love with you, oh, oh, oh

Can′t take me anywhere
I′d take you anywhere
You can't take me anywhere
Well, I can′t take you anywhere
I'll take you anywhere you wanna go


Oh, you can′t stand me now, no, you can't stand me now
No, you can′t stand me now, oh, you can't stand me now
You can't stand me now, no, you can′t stand me now
You can′t stand me now, you can't stand me now

Have we enough to keep it together?
Or do we just keep on pretending
And hope our luck is never-ending now
You tried to pull the wool, I wasn′t feeling too clever
And you take all that they're lending
Until you needed mending now

If you wanna try, if you wanna try
There′s no worse you could do, oh, oh, oh
I know you lie, all you do is make me cry
And those words, they ain't true

Oh, can′t take me anywhere
I can't take you anywhere
Can't take me anywhere
Well, I won′t take you anywhere
I′ll take you anywhere you wanna go

Oh, you can't stand me now, no, you can′t stand me now
No, you can't stand me now, no, you can′t stand me now
No, you can't stand me now, no, you can′t stand me now
No, you can't stand me now, no, you can't stand me now


You can′t stand me now, you can′t stand me now
You can't stand me now, no, you can′t stand me now
You can't stand me now, you can′t stand me now
No, you can't stand me now (no, oh, oh)
You can′t stand me now (oh, oh, oh)
