About promotion man George Sherlock, who was assigned by Decca Records to travel with the band while they were on the West Coast. The Stones didn't particularly enjoy having a chaperone, and wrote this put-down song about him.

Initially, the Stones weren't happy about being assigned a chaperone but after a while, they didn't mind having George around. I met George the other day. He's a really cool guy. He said he was in the promo business for 30 years and met The Beatles, Janis Joplin, and Jimi Hendrix along with the Stones.
