I have a vague memory of hearing that line on an ancient SNL parody in the style of those compilation album commercials, K-Tel and the like, that used to exist. That and the fake Stones singing "Hey, you, get outta my yard." Unless I hallucinated the whole thing, which isn't impossible considering the decade.
