WTF! Don't interpret what does "Rod Stewart saying" but what are "you" hearing. Why does it resonate with you, the one with ears.

1. typical guy. Cuts up. Challenges stuff Thinks he's hot. Ever look in the mirror? I remember the splashes of too much English Leather! Thought I was cool.

2. reference to challenging society, Social unrest, challenging, but it all stays the same. Never changes.

3. "Sneakin Sally Through the Alley"...going home still a bit under..wake up with a bra in your bed.

4. The grand 1st prize is sex...c'mon...that's true for just about all of us. It is not the end-all we think about in our 20's.

5. Susie is much appreciated but that's it. Take it or leave.

6. It is Verse 7. needed a rhyme scheme, that's all. vers e7 or whatever says the whole verse is unclear...needed the rhyme scheme.
