Mister modern middle class is really in a stew
Wondering what the younger generation's coming to
And the taste of his Martini doesn't please his bitter tongue
Blame it on the rolling stones.

Blame it on the stones blame it on the stones
You feel so much better knowing you won't stand alone
Join me at your station save your bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders blame it on the stones.

Mother tells the ladies at the Bridge Club every day
Of the rising price of tranquilizes she must pay
And she wonders why the children never seem to stay at home
Blame it on the rolling stones.

(One more time) blame it on the stones
(Yes that's beautiful children) blame it on the stones
Oh you feel so much better knowing you won't stand alone
Join me at your station save your bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders blame it on the stones.

Father's at the office nightly working over time
Tryin' to make the secretary change her little mind
And it bothers him to read about so many broken homes
Blame it on those rolling stones.

(One more time) blame it on the stones
(Yes that's beautiful children) blame it on the stones
Oh you feel so much better knowing you won't stand alone
Join me at your station save your bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders blame it on the stones...
