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 evenin'
through a crack in the drapes...
Jesus rides beside me,
and 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 evenin'
through a hole in the drapes...
I'll be home when I'm sleepin'.
I can't hardly wait.
~The Replacements "Can't Hardly Wait"
Someone should be drawn and quartered for using such holy poetry as the title of a stupid teenie bopper b-movie.
On the other hand, aside from the Singles soundtrack, I'm sure it's the biggest paycheck Paul Westerberg ever got in his life.

Not only great lyrics but some great music especially the little minor chord change on "when I'm sleepin" great stuff.
