lyrics

find the secret cool
you'll do what you have to
do something so uncool if you have to
and eventually
people will long to be
a servant on your court when you are king
because you're cool
too cool for school
too cool for the pool
too cool even for cool
oh man you rule
with an iron spoon
to swallow everything
everyone too
if we swallow our pride
we might earn enough to buy
something to elude us our whole lives
so we learn to speak
with our tongue in cheek
and hope it all works out
outlook looks bleak
because you're cool
too cool for school
too cool for the pool
too cool even for cool
oh man you rule
with an iron spoon
to swallow everything
everyone too
we found what we were looking for
now we're terribly bored
what's cool for everyone
aint cool no more
any rare find you can find
aint rare at all
a pedigree won't come
when it is called
