Twisted Sister is an American heavy metal band from New York City popularized in comedic music videos on the television channel MTV in the 1980s. Although formed by guitar player Jay Jay French in 1973, all of their songs were written by the lead singer Dee Snider. They fused the shock tactics of Alice Cooperand W.A.S.P., the rebellious mood of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the style of the New York Dolls, and the extravagant makeup of Kiss. Often misconceived as glam - the makeup and Dee's especially was more transformed into a horror creation, and the music is a lot more hard hitting, with less lyrics about sex, than glam rock. The group's hit songs include "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock".

Can't Stand Still Lyrics

Twisted Sister

Well, I remember the day that it ended, it was a scene that I never intended
My heart just hasn't been mended from that day on
You looked at me so sadly, you said I treated you badly
You said you want something madly, but now it's gone
Well baby, when, when, when I was in a rock 'n' roll band and I was playin' a one night stand
And I said I wanna be your man and it was fine
But T said that we hadn't made it, although so invaded
The situation is jaded and it's a crime
And don't you know that I just can't stand still for a minute, too many memories ended
Well, I just can't stand still for a minute, I gotta move
Well, I just can't stand still for a minute, too many memories ended
Well, I just can't stand still for a minute, I gotta move, oh oh, go Eddie, go
[Solo - Eddie]
Well, you know that I just can't stand still for a minute, baby, too many memories ended
Well, I just can't stand still for a minute, I got to move
Well, I just can't stand still for a minute, oh no no, too many memories ended
Well, I just can't stand still for a minute, I gotta move
Well, I always been a long gone ember for my love that I always remember
You know it ended up bleed out December, I never forget, no I never forget
Because I know deep down in my soul, it's a feelin' that I'll never control
I'll just keep playin' my rock 'n' roll and I'll make it there
Well, you know that I just can't stand still for a minute, too many memories ended
Well, I just can't stand still for a minute, I got to move
Well, I just can't stand still for a minute, baby, too many memories ended
Oh, I just can't stand still for a minute, I got to move
Oh, I just can't stand still for a minute, I got to move
Well, I just can't stand still for a minute
Baby, well, why you treat me so bad, I can't stand it anymore
Pack all my bags and get the hell outta town, yeah
