Pandemic Blues: I Cant Take It by Chris Isaak Lyrics
[Verse 1]
First week, I'm staying home alone
Next week, I'm still here on my own
Third week, I thought I heard the phone
The fourth week, now something's really wrong
I don't know how long
I don't know if I can take it, I can take it
I can take it
[Verse 2]
The fifth week, I'm watching television
Sixth week, feels like I'm in prison
Seventh week, I'm waking up at noon
Eighth week, I gotta get out soon
'Cause i don't know how long
I don't know if I can take it, I can take it
I can take it
[Bridge]
And I went to see my doctor
I confessed I had to leave
He was calm and reassuring
Told me, "Please roll up your sleeve"
But I don't know
No, I don't know
If I can take it
I can take it
Take it now
[Refrain]
And I don't know
No, I don't know
If I can take it
I can take it
[Verse 3]
I'm so tired of bеing locked up, isolated and alone
I'm so tirеd of television, I'm so sick of staying home
And I don't know
No, I don't know
If I can take it
I can take it
Take it now
[Outro]
Take it now
I can take it
That's all, babe
That's all
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Take it
See what I'm saying
First week, I'm staying home alone
Next week, I'm still here on my own
Third week, I thought I heard the phone
The fourth week, now something's really wrong
I don't know how long
I don't know if I can take it, I can take it
I can take it
[Verse 2]
The fifth week, I'm watching television
Sixth week, feels like I'm in prison
Seventh week, I'm waking up at noon
Eighth week, I gotta get out soon
'Cause i don't know how long
I don't know if I can take it, I can take it
I can take it
[Bridge]
And I went to see my doctor
I confessed I had to leave
He was calm and reassuring
Told me, "Please roll up your sleeve"
But I don't know
No, I don't know
If I can take it
I can take it
Take it now
[Refrain]
And I don't know
No, I don't know
If I can take it
I can take it
[Verse 3]
I'm so tired of bеing locked up, isolated and alone
I'm so tirеd of television, I'm so sick of staying home
And I don't know
No, I don't know
If I can take it
I can take it
Take it now
[Outro]
Take it now
I can take it
That's all, babe
That's all
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Take it
See what I'm saying
