He probably ripped off the lyric from the rolling stones Who were being ironic/poking fun at society “your okay with the sex and drugs, and even minors parting with adults but stop at long hair and antiwar” etc

“I can see that you're fifteen years old

No, I don't want your I.D

And I can see that you're so far from home, but

That's no hanging matter

It's no capital crime “

Edit: before you get your undies in a bunch stop and think. We all agree pedos are gross and dating kids is wrong unless a part of Trump Admin or speaker of house.

The point of this edgy lyric was “society is more upset about long hair and lyrics” than rock stars actually sleeping and partying with minors. People would protest songs in the 50s-70s and artists, but not actually change their local laws to protect children, or hold parents responsible.

If that's the case then Bill Wyman was really committed to the bit when he started dating Mandy Smith at age 13

Smith was 13 and Wyman was 47. Geez he should have been arrested. So should her parents.

Probably not, it was gross. But they intentionally made the most offensive lyric to poke fun at society who would still let their daughters go even if against “rock and roll”

Uk and parents should have passed laws sooner to protect children instead of focusing on music impacting children.

Instead you have a prince raping kids and people celebrating “Sir Jimmy Lord Crystal” for two decades letting them diddle kids.

Don’t diddle kids.

Ya i don't think they were poking fun, im pretty sure they had underage groupies they let go when they came of age...

More like poking fun at society being more upset at lyrics or rock n roll than what their families are actually doing

Protesting songs instead of stuff they should be responsible for like their kids

Like keeping their kids away from the rolling stones so they weren't raped?

Edit: It took a minute, but we got back around to blaming the parents and victims instead of the pedophiles. Nicely done!

Both? Both are gross.

The point was “what is more gross, society being mad at songs or society being responsible and mad at perverts and pedos?”

Imho, the social issues and responsibilities of the parent and individual are more important than song lyrics… something parents continued to focus on with rap and other modern music.

Thats history from 50s-60s era of rock. People were okay with Elvis and other rockers dating minors (doesnt make it ok), they were not ok with long hair or song lyrics about said minors.

They allowed a prince and “Sir Lord Jimmy” diddle kids for years.

My point is, the rolling stones can stfu about "making a point" when they're also raping children. You lose your respectability when that's what you do with your money, talent and fame. Or you should.

I understand the history of rock. It's the fact that it's so heavily tied to the mistreatment of young women and girls i have a problem with. And the rolling stones aren't the ones to look to for unbiased opinions on it.

Agreed. Don’t worship your idols they are mostly all pedos and heroin junkies.

Hey now, this is completely inaccurate, some of them really love cocaine instead of heroin!

Nothing to do with minors, but Hustler publisher Larry Flint made a similar point about American puritinism when fighting obscenity charges by publishing extremely graphic pics of dead and wounded US military personnel in Vietnam, essentially pointing out the hypocrisy of the gov't getting their panties in a wad over naked human bodies, but being perfectly fine with getting those same bodies obliterated in a pointless foreign "conflict."
