This might just be the greatest dumb garage-rock song ever written.
Sometimes you hear people talk about 'believing in rock n' roll'. You
have to beleive in something to sing this song with a straight face. I
prefer to sing it with an adolescent snarl.

If you don't dig what I say
Then I will go away.
And I won't come back this again. No.
'Cause I don't need a friend.

(guitar solo again)
