[Verse 1]
Here I stand before you
Waiting to be kissed
You're a beauty, such a cutie
How could I resist
It's been a month of Sundays
Since we last had spoke
So much water, you get dollars
I fell out of the boat

[Chorus]
Oh no, not you again
Fucking up my life
It was bad the first time
I can't stand it twice

Oh no, not you again
I can't stand your face
Once bitten, twice shy
Get me out of the race

[Verse 2]
The setting's so romantic
Love is in the air
All is perfect but I'm allergic
To your business stares
You look so cool and tempting
In your couture dress
You're addictive, as predicted
I'm nervous, I confess

[Chorus]
Oh no, not you again
Mashing up my life
It was bad the first time, yeah
You had me in a vice

Oh no, not you again
I hear you and I shout
It was bad the first time around
When you turned me inside out

[Verse 3]
Everybody's talking
Showing up their wits
The moon is yellow but I'm like jello
Staring down your tits
My mind flashes forward
I feel it flashing back
I still dreaming and I'm screaming
Get me off the rack!

[Chorus]
Oh no, not you again
I can't stand the pain
I was burned the first time, yeah
I can't deal it again

Oh no, not you again
Fucking up my life
Once bitten, twice shy
But I can't do it twice

Oh no, not you again
Messing up my life
It was bad first time around
I better take my own advice

[Outro]
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
C'mon!
Oh!

[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
Thank you very much! Thank you very kindly! Thanks. Whoo! I think we should do something by Bob Marley and Peter Tosh, I think?

Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones led the “British Invasion” along with The Beatles and were so successful their influence can be seen in arguably every rock ‘n’ roll band that followed.

Three of the current members have been there since the band’s singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, who write the majority of the band’s catalogue and also produced some albums as The Glimmer Twins; and drummer Charlie Watts. The fourth official member is guitarist Ronnie Wood, who has been there since 1975 (the keyboardist and bassist who play in studio and live are usually not listed). The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums, and even as age caught up on them, continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit, with big stadium tours continuing through the 1990s, 2000s and into the 2010s.
