(Yeah! Tell them who we are)
[Verse 1]
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 one thousand dollars a show (Right)
We take all kinds of pills to give us all kinds of thrills, but the thrill we've never known
Is the thrill that'll get you when you get your picture on the cover of The Rolling Stone

[Chorus]
(Rolling Stone)
Gonna get see my picture on the cover
(Stone)
Gonna buy five copies for my mother (Yeah!)
(Stone)
Gonna see my smiling face on the cover of The Rolling Stone

(That's a very, very good idea!)
[Verse 2]
I've got a freaky old lady named Cocaine Katy who [?] on my jeans
I've got my poor old granddaddy (uh-huh) driving my limousine
Now it's all designed to blow our minds but our minds won't really be blown
Like the blow that'll get you when you get your picture on the cover of The Rolling Stone

[Chorus]
(Rolling Stone)
Gonna get see my picture on the cover
(Stone)
Gonna buy five copies for my mother (Yeah!)
(Stone)
Gonna see my smiling face on the cover of The Rolling Stone
Hey, I know how, I know how
Get the Rock N' Roll!

[Xylophone solo]

[Verse 3]
We've got a lot of little teenage blue-eyed groupies who will do anything we say
We've got a genuine Indian guru who's teaching us a better way
We've got all the friends that money can buy so we never have to be alone
And we keep getting richer but we can't get our picture on the cover of The Rolling Stone

[Chorus]
(Rolling Stone)
Gonna get see my picture on the cover
(Stone)
Gonna buy ten copies for my mother!
(Stone)
Gonna see my smiling face on the cover of The Rolling Stone
(Rolling Stone)
Gonna get see my picture on the cover
(Stone)
Gonna buy five copies for my mother
(Stone)
Gonna see my smiling face on the cover of The Rolling St-
Right up front, man
I can see it now
I mean it
Ten copies, fifteen copies
I can see it now, the smiling face
What do you mean nobody reads Rolling Stone anymore!?
