well we're big rock singers

we've got golden fingers

and we're loved everywhere we go

we sing about beauty

and we sing about truth

at ten thousand dollars a show

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 ya

when you get your picture

on the cover of the rolling stone

rolling stone

i wanna see my picture on the cover

stone

i wanna buy five copies for my mother

stone

i wanna see my smiling face on

the cover of the rolling stone

i got a freaky old lady

name of cocaine katie

who embroiders on my jeans

i got my poor old gray haired daddy

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 ya

when you get your picture

on the cover of the rolling stone

rolling stone

i wanna see my pictures on the cover

stone

i wanna buy five copies for my mother

stone

i wanna see my smiling face

on the cover of the rolling stone

bracketed

we got a lot a little

teenage blue eyed groupies

who'll do anything we say

we got a genuine indian guru

who's teaching us a better way

we 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

rolling stone

i wanna see my picture on the cover

stone

i wanna buy five copies for my mother

stone

i wanna see my smiling face

on the cover of the rolling stone

on the cover of the rolling

stone

i wanna see my picture on the cover

stone

i wanna buy five copies for my mother

stone

i wanna see my smiling face

on the cover of the rolling stone
