This day in music history.

July 5, 1978, Lucille Ball, Farrah Fawcett, Raquel Welch, and the estates of Judy Garland and Marilyn Monroe threaten legal action against The Rolling Stones because their new album, "Some Girls" has pictures of the women on the cover. The album is immediately pulled and redesigned.
Respectable by The Rolling Stones
Well now we're respected in society
We don't worry about the things that we used to be
We're talking heroin with the president
Well it's a problem, sir, but it can't be bent
Uh yes!
Well now you're a pillar of society
You don't worry about the things that you used to be
You're a rag-trade girl, you're the queen of porn
You're the easiest lay on the White House lawn
Get out of my life, don't come back
Get out of my life, don't come back
She's so respectable
She's so respectable
She's so delectable
She's so respectable Get out of my life
Don't take my wife Don't come back
Get out of my life Don't take my wife
Don't come back
What I say!
