Yes, I'm frightened out of my wits
There's bombers in my bedroom
Yeah and it's giving me the shits"

A bit precious here—and a smidgen OT—but in ROUTE 66 Mick sings "Barstow" as though it rhymes with "Moscow", when in fact it rhymes with "car show."
Mick is actually to be forgiven because the Stones were obviously inspired by Chuck Berry's rendition of the song, and Berry also incorrectly rhymes "Barstow" with "Moscow."
But Berry is to be faulted, because he's a big Nat King Cole fan, and was almost certainly inspired by Nat King Cole's version of ROUTE 66. And Cole pronounces "Barstow" correctly. So why didn't Berry double-check Cole's pronunciation and get it right?
As a Californian who has driven through Barstow a number of times and has made sure to be playing the Stones' ROUTE 66 when doing so, it grates when Mick is mispronouncing the town when I'm driving through it!

Having a listen: Nat King Cole has Barstow right, Chuck Berry has it wrong. None of the Stones, remember, had ever heard of the place when they learned the song.
And by the way, how you pronounce Moscow depends on which side of the pond you come from. "Moss-cow" is pure USA - over here it's "Mosco".

The lyrics for 'Brand New Car' are the absolute worst set of lyrics they have ever put together. Really, the only song that makes me cringe...
Jack her up baby, go on, open the hood
I want to check if her oil smells good
Mmmm...smells like caviar
Whaaaaat!?
Or maybe...
Touch her on the seat
Go on, feel the fur
Complete lyrics...could have been written by a 12 year old...
I got a brand new car
And I like to drive real hard
I got a brand new car
And I'm feeling good so far
Take her on the highway for a little spin
I want to see the kind of shape she's in
And I got a brand new star
Jack her up baby, go on, open the hood
I want to check if her oil smells good
Mmmm...smells like caviar
Give her some stick
Push her too far
Right to the brink
Hear the motor running
Yeah, she's right in sink
[ From: [www.metrolyrics.com] ]
Tell me if she's thirsty
Would she like a drink
And I'm stopping at this bar
Slinky like a panther
You can hear her purr
Touch her on the seat
Go on, feel the fur
And I got a brand new star
Feel the juice
Foot to the floor
Take some abuse
I got a brand new car
And I drive her in the dark
And I got a brand new car
I think I'll stop and park
