(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone

Artists : Monkees, The : (I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone

I'm not your steppin' stone. I'm not your steppin' stone.
You're trying to make your mark in society,
you're using all the tricks that you used on me.
You're reading all them high-fashion magazines,
the clothes you're wearing, girl, are causing public scenes.

I said, I'm not your steppin' stone.
I'm not your steppin' stone.
Not your steppin' stone. Not your steppin' stone.
I'm not your steppin' stone.

When I first met you girl you didn't have no shoes
but now you're walking 'round like you're front page news.
You've been awful careful 'bout the friends you choose,
but you won't find my name in your book of "Who's Whos."

I said, I'm not your steppin' stone (No, girl, not me!).
I'm not your steppin' stone.
Not your steppin' stone. I'm not your steppin' stone.
Not your steppin' stone (Not your steppin' stone).
Not your steppin' stone (Not your steppin' stone)
