I Can't Take It No More

I'm about to squeeze off on everyone that I know

'Cause every time they see me they ask for dough

They think I'm rich 'cause my name is Kurtis Blow

I can't stand it I can't take it no more

(I can't stand it I can't take it no more) (4x)

I can't take it no more (4x)

Lookin' out my window five stories up

I see a wino with a bottle he don't need a cup

And there's a hooker in the alley way

Takin' a chance,tryin' to make a days pay

But the rats in the alley are takin' a stand

Chewin' on somethin' that used to be a man

I can't stand it,I can't take it no more (2x)

I can't take it no more (4x)

Gun shots just up the block

By a kid whose head is hard as a rock

A lady with a baby who was crossing the street

Gets hit by a bullet and falls off her feet

The people gather round,the baby is crying

The ambulance is late and the lady is dying

The trigger happy did not step off that day

But the lady with the baby was a D-O-A

I can't stand it,I can't take it no more (2x)

I can't take it no more (x8
