(I’m Not Your) Stepping Stone Lyrics by Sex Pistols

The Great Rock ‘n’ Roll Swindle

1979

[Chorus]
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
[Verse 1]
You tried to make your mark in society
You're using all the tricks that you used on me
I read about your payday in your magazines
The clothes you're wearin', yeah, worn at the seams
[Chorus]
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
[Verse 2]
When I first met you, girl, you had no shoes
And now you're walking like you're front-page news
You've been unfaithful like the friends you choose
You won't find me in your book of who's
[Chorus]
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
[Chorus 2]
I'm not your steppingstone
I'm not stoned again
I'm not a crock
[Chorus]
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
[Verse 3]
You're trying to make your mark in society
You're using all the tricks that you used on me
I read about your payday in those magazines
The shit you're wearin' is worn at the seams
[Chorus]
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
I, I, I, I, I'm not your steppingstone
