Can't Hardly Wait Lyrics


I'll write you a letter tomorrow
Tonight I can't hold a pen
Someone's got a stamp that I can borrow
I promise not to blow the address again

Lights that flash in the evening,
Through a crack in the drapes

Jesus rides beside me
He never buys any smokes
Hurry up, hurry up, ain't you had enough of this stuff
Ashtray floors, dirty clothes, and filthy jokes

See you're high and lonesome
Try and try and try

Lights that flash in the evening,
Through a hole in the drapes
I'll be home when I'm sleeping
I Can't Hardly Wait

I can't wait. Hardly wait.

Can't Hardly Wait
  • Two versions of this song exist. The most famous one, on Pleased To Meet Me, starts with a bass line and features horns. The original, found on the Tim demo sessions, has the guitar starting the song and is about committing suicide. The record company felt that Pleased To Meet Me, with suicide paean "The Ledge," didn't need any controversy over having two songs about suicide, so the lyrics to this song were altered.
