Can't stand society Can't believe what's come to be Why do we put up with this What has this world come to I often wonder Is this civilization causing themselves to go under And I Can't stand to hear the sound Of all this ignorance around Am I the only one that sees That everyone could only care for themselves So I'm fucking stuck with stupidity Can't stand the negativity Or this screwed mentality Just wanna get away from here There's so many set out for being ruthless And not having their own lives So they get into my business And I Can't stand society Can't believe what's here with me Won't surrender or agree I'll stick with what I think really matters And won't tolerate stupidity Can't stand the negativity Or this screwed mentality Just wanna get away from here There's so many set out for being ruthless And not having their own lives So they get into my business And I Can't stand society Can't believe what's here with me Won't surrender or agree I'll stick with what I think really matters And won't tolerate stupidity Oh I won't tolerate stupidity And I'm fed up to here with stupidity

Got a foot in the door God knows what for And he'll cut me down to size Stupidity tries Everything here is free Everything but you and me This painting never dries Stupidity tries Savannah shoulder raised a cheer Coloring the sky with ash Because they found some privateer To sail across a sea of trash The enemy is within Don't confuse me with him The truth is otherwise Stupidity tries And so I go from floor to floor Looking for a port of call Another drunk conquistador Conquering the governor's ball I couldn't think of a thing That I hope tomorrow brings Oh, what a surprise Stupidity tries

Oh I was perfect For the circus If he dared me I'd do it Love makes you stupid I'd give it up But I guess it was not enough 'Cause he never seemed satisfied I know I'm not perfect But at the end of the day, who is?

He set the bar Just above the stars A rocket couldn't reach it But I still kept on reaching He watched me at least a thousand times If he loved me, he'd stop me, but no I know I'm not perfect But at the end of the day, who is? He wanted someone that's perfect Well ok, but can you tell me who is? I saw my future in his eyes So wrong, so wrong Guess I was destined for more in my life 'Cause he didn't break me down, he made me strong I know I'm not perfect But at the end of the day, who is? He wanted someone that's perfect Well ok, but can you tell me who is?

The accused will rise To be torn in two Guilty of nothin' but loving you This is the judgement And I'm willin' to plead How you don't want me Hopin' this torment will cease Will I be released? There'll be lies, there'll be tears A jury of your peers With a pitiful look of experience Hand down the judgement And if I done wrong And loved you too long Stand up and just testify How can you deny? Objection overruled I wait for my reprieve With the trust of the deceived The wisdom of the fool It's his sorrowful face Too heavy for his head 'Cos he bowed it as something come over him It was the judgement And he falls to his knees Have mercy on me He clings to the hem of her gown She says: "Just take him down" Just take him down Just take him down
