"Just because I say "I" in a song doesn't necessarily mean it's me. A lot of people have a problem with that. It's
just the way I write usually, take on someone else's personality or character. I'd rather just use someone else's example,
because I dunno, my life is kinda boring, and so y'know, I just take stories from things I've read, and off the television,
and in stories I've heard, maybe even some friends." -KURT .

DO YOU LOVE ME... THE ROLLING STONES..........................You really like my limousine You like the way the wheels roll You like my seven inch leather heels And goin' to all of the shows But... Do you love me? Really love me? Do you love me? You like the credit cards and private planes Money can really take you far, You like the hotels and fancy clothes And the sound of electric guitars You really like rock 'n' roll All of the fame and the masquerade You like the concerts and studios And all the moeny honey that I make Your backstage pass and black sunglasses Make you look just like a queen Even the fans they know your face From all of the magazines [heckling] bambikills..
