Rolling Stone called Aerosmith's "Sweet Emotion" the 408th greatest song, but once again, they are proving themselves desperate to pad the list. Sure, by making it to Number 36, it was Aerosmith's first Top 40 "hit". But the almost non-existent melody and generically-suggestive lyrics leave me feeling...meh.
As if they were singing about vegetarianism...and bored about it.
Meat demotion
Meat demotion
Talk about things like cabbage and beets
Eating other things that nobody eats
You're grilling a steak but I got to make clear
That's a place I just won't go near
Some wannabe mama who looks like a dork
Said my favorite thing is barbequed pork
Well I got good news, she's a real good liar
'Cause I don't touch pig that's been through the fire
Meat demotion
Meat demotion
I pulled into town, didn't know where to park it
Your daddy said go to the farmer's market
You're telling me things that you want me to buy
Like two dozen eggs and a big ribeye
You stand in the front just a-chewin' your chicken
But my tofu's the thing that keeps me tickin'
I'll talk about something you can sure understand
I'll never eat nothing not grown from the land
