Every generation has its rebel records and icons - whether its Dean, the Pelvis, Zep, Stones, Pistols - those who grew up in the late 80s/early 90s had this one (and the whole grunge thing of course). Loud, brash, misogynist, violent, shameless and rocking as hard as anyone - you couldn't ignore it if you wanted to. unless you're brain-dead. For all their excesses, Guns N' Roses lived their rock n roll dream. Now let's see some balls on the establishment side and put them in the Hall of Fame in 2013.

If I say I don't need anyone
I can say these things to you
'cause
I can turn on anyone
Just like I've turned on you
I've got a tongue like a razor
A sweet switchblade knife
And I can do you favors
But then you'll do whatever I like

Here I am
And you're a Rocket Queen
I might be a little young
But honey, I ain't naive
Here I am
And you're a Rocket Queen oh yeah
I might be too much
But honey you're a bit obscene

I've seen everything imaginable
Pass before these eyes
I've had everything that's tangible
Honey you'd be suprised
I'm a sexual innuendo
In this burned out paradise
If you turn me on to anything
You better turn me on tonight

I see you standin'
Standin' on your own
It's such a lonely place for you
For you to be
If you need a shoulder
Or if you need a friend
I'll be here standing
Until the bitter end
No one needs the sorrow
No one needs the pain
I hate to see you
Walking out there
Out in the rain
So don't chastise me
Or think I, I mean you harm
Of those that take you
Leave you strung out
Much too far
Baby-yeah

Don't ever leave me
Say you'll always be there
All I ever wanted
Was for you
To know that I care
