Suck On The Jugular
The Rolling Stones · The Rolling Stones Box Set [2009]
Been keeping cool
Been lying low
Been dancing smooth
And dancing slow
Keeping myself to myself
My nose is clean
But I'm a man
Not a machine
All get together and feel alright
All get together and rock all night
All get together and feel alright
Okay
Get ready
For sure
Okay
Let's go
Suck on the jugular
Love to change my shape
And change my name
Want to get out of myself for a while
Don't feel no shame
I love men to be men
And women women
On special occasions
Diving and dipping
All get together and feel alright
All get together and fuck all night
Alright
Give me
For sure
Okay
Let's go
Suck on the jugular
Okay
Let's go
Alright
Oh, no
Aha
Alright
Let's live lasciviously
Down in the muck
And when tonight's over
You going to watch me blow
And self-destruct
All get together and feel alright
All get together and feel all night
All get together and feel alright
Get together
All get together and rock
All get together and rock
All get together and rock all night
Suck On The Jugular
Suck On The Jugular stands as a compelling example of The Rolling Stones' experimental side, showcasing the band's willingness to explore darker, more atmospheric textures beyond their signature blues-rock foundation. Recorded during a period of intense creative output, the track reflects the group's ability to blend rock energy with moody, introspective arrangements. While often overshadowed by their most famous chart-topping singles, this recording highlights the depth of their discography and the collaborative chemistry between Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and their longtime bandmates. The song's distinctive sound contributes to the broader narrative of the Stones' evolution, demonstrating their capacity to craft memorable music that resonates with both longtime fans and new listeners alike.
