05. The Rolling Stones – Poison Ivy (1964)
You’ll be scratchin‘ like a hound
The minute you start to mess around
Dazu Songwriter Jerry Lieber:
„Pure and simple, ‘Poison Ivy’ is a metaphor for a sexually transmitted disease – or the clap – hardly a topic for a song that hit the Top Ten in the Spring of 1959, but the more we wrote, the less we understood why the public bought what it bought.“
