"Can't Stand It" was written by Christofer Drew and produced by Butch Walker. The song was recorded at Abbey Road Studios. Lyrically, the song is about Drew gushing about girls who are "superduper cute."

Critical reception
Scott Heisel of Alternative Press stated, "If Michael Cera and [ Elliot Page] covered 'Can't Stand It' over the closing credits to Juno, Drew would have an indie-pop monument erected in his honor by the blogosphere." Christian Hoard of Rolling Stone remarked, "The vocals are often pained and piercing, and his manner can be gratingly precious — especially on 'Can't Stand It'."
