The Libertines — Can’t Stand Me Now

[Verse 1: Carl Barat] An ending fitting for the start You twist'n'tore our love apart Your light fingers threw the dart That shattered the lamp and into darkness cast us [Verse 2: Pete Doherty] 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 [Pre-Chorus: Carl Barat & Pete Doherty] If you want to try If you want to try There's no worse you could do Uh oh oh I know you lie I know you lie I'm still in love with you Uh 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 want to go [Chorus: Carl Barat & Pete Doherty] 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 You can't stand me now, no you can't stand me No, you can't stand me, no you can't stand me now [Verse 3:] Have we enough to keep 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 [Pre-Chorus: Carl Barat & Pete Doherty] If you want to try If you want to try There's no worse you could do Uh oh oh I know you lie All you do is make me cry All those words they ain't true Can't take me anywhere, I can't take you anywhere Can't take me anywhere, I won't take you anywhere I'll take you anywhere you want to go [Chorus: Carl Barat & Pete Doherty] 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 (Repeat) No oh oh You can't stand me now Oh oh oh
