My Pet Rock

Start

Intro

Some folks collect stamps and coins

Baseball cards and fancy brooch pins

But I've found friends made of joints

(Mineral joints, that's what I mean)

Verse 1

Started with a pebble small

Found it by the grocery store

Now my collection's down the hall

Can't fit anymore through my door[Chorus]

I've got a pet rock collection

They never need much attention

No walks or medical intervention

Just dust them with deep affection

Post-Chorus

(Rock on, rock on)

(They rock, they rock)

Verse 2

Named one Frederick von Slate

Another one's Marble Kate

They watch TV while I clean their crate

My friends all think I'm not that great

Pre-Chorus

Some people say I'm peculiar

But my rocks think I'm quite familiar

With their mineral behavior

Being odd is so much safer

Chorus

I've got a pet rock collection

They never need much attention

No walks or medical intervention

Just dust them with deep affection

Post-Chorus

(Rock on, rock on)

(They rock, they rock)[Bridge]

My therapist says it's concerning

That I'm naming stones and yearning

For geological returning

But these rocks keep my world turning

Chorus

I've got a pet rock collection

They never need much attention

No walks or medical intervention

Just dust them with deep affection

Post-Chorus

(Rock on, rock on)

(They rock, they rock)

Coda

They're my granite family

Bringing joy geologically

No better friends could ever be

Than my mineral menagerie[End]
