It ain't so long ago since we were just two kids   Remember well, memories we all hid   But you're much older now, although you still are young   I know you well, I'm like you      Hey Rose, you're finer than you know   Why hang around with clothes of another name   Hair so dyed, she lost too much inside   Ain't nothing left to hide in the game      Hey Rose, how do you laugh in your own show   Try to fight the fears that rise within   Rock 'n' roll slag, oh, my, you're such a drag   Trying to find the corner to inject      Hey Rose, so silently she goes   Careful not to make up, see your maker      Hey Rose, how do you laugh when she's on the show   Try to fight the fears that rise within   Hey, rock 'n' roll slag, oh, oh, you're such a drag   Trying to find the corner to inject      Hey Rose, you're finer than you know   And I hate to see you cold on a summer day
