: Every day in the week I'm in a different city
: If I stay too long people try to pull me down
: They talk about me like a dog
: Talkin' about the clothes I wear
: But they don't realise they're the ones who's square
: Hey!
: And that's why
: You can't hold me down
: I don't want to be down

: Stone free - do what I please
: Stone free - to ride the breeze

If my memory serves me well, I thought it was "talk about me, like a DOLL, talk about the clothes I wear" which makes better sense.

Anybody know which it is?
