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
