Lou Reed
I Can’t Stand It
It's hard being a man
Living in a garbage pale
My old lady called me up
She tried to hit me with a mop
I can't stand it any more, more
I can't stand it any more, more
But if Shirley would just come back, it'd be alright
If Shirley would just come back, it'd be alright

I live with thirteen dead cats
A purple dog that wears spats
They're all living in the hall
And I can't stand it anymore
I can't stand it any more, more
I can't stand it any more, more
But if Shirley would just come back it'd be alright
If Shirley would just come back it's be alright

It's hard being a man living in a garbage pale
My old lady called me up
She tried to hit me with a mop
I can't stand it any more, more
I can't stand it any more, more
But if Shirley would just come back, it'd be alright
I cried, if Shirley would just come back it'd be alright
What ya gotta lose?
