The Cover of the Rolling Stone
[Spoken:]
Ha ,ha, ha, I don't believe it.
Da, da, ah, ooh, don't touch me.
Hey, Ray, hhey, Sugar
Tell them who we are.
[Sung:]
Well, we're big rock singers, we got golden fingers.
And we're loved everywhere we go.
(That sounds like us)
We sing about beauty, and we sing about truth,
At ten thousand dollars a show (right)
We take all kinds of pills,
That give us all kind of thrills.
But the thrill we've never known,
Is the thrill that'll gitcha,
When you get your picture,
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone.
(Rollin' Stone) Wanna see my picture on the cover.
(Stone) Wanna buy five copies for my mother (yes)
(Stone) Wanna see my smilin' face,
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone.
(That's a very, very good idea)
I got a freaky ol' lady name a-cocaine Katy,
Who embroid'ries on my jeans.
I got my poor, ol' grey-haired daddy,
Drivin' my limousine.
Now it's all designed to blow our minds,
But our minds won't really be blown.
Like the blow that'll gitcha,
When you get your picture,
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone.
(Rollin' Stone) Wanna see our pictures on the cover.
(Stone) Wanna buy five copies for our mothers (yes)
(Stone) Wanna see my smilin' face,
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone.
[Spoken:]
Hey, I know how rock and roll.
[Freaky guitar break]
(Ah, that's beautiful)
We got a lot of little teenage, blue-eyed groupies,
Who do anything we say.
We got a genuine Indian guru,
Who's teachin' us a better way.
We got all the friends that money can buy,
So we never have to be alone (no)
And we keep gettin' richer,
But we can't get our picture,
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone.
(Rollin' Stone) Wanna see my picture on the cover.
(Stone) Wanna buy five copies for my mother (I want one)
(Stone) Wanna see my smilin' face,
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone.
On the cover of the Rollin'
(Stone) Wanna see my picture on the cover.
(I don't know why we ain't on the cover, baby)
(Stone) Wanna buy five copies for my mother
(We're beautiful fellas)
(Stone) Wanna see my smilin' face,
(I ain't kiddin' ya, we would make a beautiful cover)
On the cover of the Rollin' Stone.
(Fresh shot, right up front, man)
(I can see it now, we'll be up in the front)
(Smilin' man, ohh, beautiful)
