Are papers with Rolling Stone? (5,8)
I believe the answer is:
water sapphire
'stone?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both substances as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'are papers with rolling' is the wordplay.
'rolling' indicates an anagram.
'are'+'papers'+'with'='arepaperswith'
'arepaperswith' anagrammed gives 'WATER SAPPHIRE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
