Rocket Queen (1986 Sound City session) Lyrics

If I say I don′t need anyone, I can say these things to you
'Cause I can turn on anyone, just like I′ve turned on you
I've got a tongue like a razor, a sweet switchblade knife
And I can do you favors, but then you'll do whatever I like

′Cause here I am, and you′re a Rocket Queen, oh, yeah
I might be a little young, but, baby, I ain't naive
Here I am, and you′re a Rocket Queen, uh-huh
I might be too much, but, honey, you're a bit obscene
Oh, ow!

I′ve had everything imaginable pass before these eyes
I've had everything that′s tangible, honey, you'd be surprised
I'm a sexual innuendo in this burned-out paradise
If you turn me on to anything, you better turn me on tonight

Because here I am, and you′re a Rocket Queen
I might be a little young, but, baby, I ain′t naive
Here I am, and you're a Rocket Queen, uh-huh
I might be too much, but, honey, you′re a bit obscene
Ow!
Ow, cha!

Here I am, and you're a Rocket Queen, uh-huh
I might be a little young, but, honey, I ain′t naive
Here I am, and you're a Rocket Queen, oh, no
I might be too much, but, baby, you′re a bit obscene, ow

I see you standin', standin' on your own
It′s such a lonely place for you, for you to be
So, if you need a shoulder or if you need a friend
I′ll be here standing until the bitter end
No one needs the sorrow, no one needs the pain
I hate to see you walking out there, in the rain
So, don't chastise me or think I mean you harm
Of those that take you, leave you strung out much too far
Baby, yeah
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
No-no-no, no-no-no, no-no-no, no-no-no
No, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, no-no-no-no
Oh, yeah

Don′t leave me and say you'll always be there
All I ever wanted was for you to know that I care
