: U.S. President Obama used that phrase recently and news stories appeared saying he was quoting Stone Free as sung by Jimi Hendrix. I don't have a question. Just thought this was weird and wanted to share.

I think it is mis-heard - the line sounds like 'talk about me like a doll, talk about the clothes I wear, but they don't realise they are the ones who're square'

a dog doesn't usually wear clothes - not in 1967 or whenever
