[Verse 1]
Somebody called me on the phone
They said, "Hey, is Dee Dee home?
Do you wanna take a walk?
Do you wanna go and cop?
Do you wanna go and get some Chinese rocks?"
[Chorus]
I'm living on a Chinese rock
All my best things are in hock
I'm living on a Chinese rock
Everything is in the pawn shop
It is!
[Verse 2]
The plaster's falling off the wall
My girlfriend's crying in the shower stall

But I'm just digging a Chinese ditch
[Chorus]
I'm living on a Chinese rock
All my best things are in hock
I'm living on a Chinese rock

It is!
Ooh!
Ahh!
Ooh!
Ahh!
[Verse 3]

I should have been rich
But I'm just digging a Chinese ditch
[Chorus]
I'm living on a Chinese rock
All my best things are in hock
I'm living on a Chinese rock
Everything is in the pawn shop
It is!
[Outro]
I'm living on a Chinese rock
I'm living on a Chinese rock
I'm living on a Chinese rock
I'm living on a Chinese rock
I'm living on a Chinese rock
I'm living on a Chinese rock
Hit it!

told VICE:
I wrote that song outta spite for Richard Hell, cause he told me he was gonna write a song better than Lou Reed’s “Heroin.” I went home and wrote “Chinese Rocks.” I wrote it by myself, in Debbie Harry’s apartment on First Avenue and First Street. I always wrote my songs wi...
