“Stepping Stone Party” is actually State Of Alert’s version of The Monkees' “(I’m Not Your) Stepping Stone”, with goofy party noises and group backing vocals supplied by the band and cast of friends (including a ubiquitous Ian MacKaye).
State Of Alert appear to have learned “Stepping Stone” via the...
“Yo!!! Party! Party! … Hey, check it out… Heyyyyy! Hey, Henry, c’mon, man!…”
I-yi-yi-yi-I’m not your stepping stone! (Alright, alright)
I-yi-yi-yi-I’m not your stepping stone! (Party!)
Try to make your mark in society
Use the little tricks that you used on me
Read about you baby in those magazines
Shit you’re wearing makes a public scene, all right!
I-yi-yi-yi-I’m not your stepping stone! (Alright!)
I-yi-yi-yi-I’m not your stepping stone! (Hold on a second, man.)
When I first met you girl, you had no shoes
Now you’re running ‘round like you’re front page news
Read about you baby and the friends you choose
Won’t find me in your book of who’s who’s
I-yi-yi-yi-I’m not your stepping stone! (I said — what did you say?)
I-yi-yi-yi-I’m not your stepping stone!
Alright, here we go…
(Oh my god!)
Get up off the chair, y’all!
I-yi-yi-yi-I’m not your stepping stone! (Ow, ow, ow, ow!)
I-yi-yi-yi-I’m not your stepping stone!
Stepping Stone Party was written by Bobby Hart & Tommy Boyce.
