The Cool Boy
Leather jacket and jeans, and a gentle smile
Breaking onto the scene, sure it takes a while
But you're born for it baby, yeah it's in your bones
Used to tell you each night through the telephone
Make my way through the crowd, to the barricade
Staring up at your stance, feel the whole room fade away
And suddenly I'm twenty two
And all I care to think and talk about is you
I wanna make you notice and focus on me
Who cares if you've been living alone
And grown comfortable?
I'm the exception to the rule
'Causе we'd look so good together
They'd all know that I'd won over the cool boy
When you're taking me home, it all comes rushing back
Relishing the same books, films, and deep cut tracks
Feeling as though the way we gravitate
Towards each other aggravates women in your orbit
Wish they had a taste of your focus on me
Who cares, this love's a perilous zone?
If you're vulnerable, then I'm the exception to the rule
'Cause we'd look so good together
They'd all know I had a hold on the cool boy
Thought I'd get out unscathed
My integrity saved
Not succumb to my rage
I should've known it
Cool boy's gonna blow it either way
When you think of me now
When you say my name out loud
Does it sound like your regrets
Your missed chances or questions unanswered?
Thought we'd look so good together
Why'd you make me play the role of the fool
Now they all know that I got over the cool boy
Breaking onto the scene, sure it takes a while
But you're born for it baby, yeah it's in your bones
Used to tell you each night through the telephone
Make my way through the crowd, to the barricade
Staring up at your stance, feel the whole room fade away
And suddenly I'm twenty two
And all I care to think and talk about is you
I wanna make you notice and focus on me
Who cares if you've been living alone
And grown comfortable?
I'm the exception to the rule
'Causе we'd look so good together
They'd all know that I'd won over the cool boy
When you're taking me home, it all comes rushing back
Relishing the same books, films, and deep cut tracks
Feeling as though the way we gravitate
Towards each other aggravates women in your orbit
Wish they had a taste of your focus on me
Who cares, this love's a perilous zone?
If you're vulnerable, then I'm the exception to the rule
'Cause we'd look so good together
They'd all know I had a hold on the cool boy
Thought I'd get out unscathed
My integrity saved
Not succumb to my rage
I should've known it
Cool boy's gonna blow it either way
When you think of me now
When you say my name out loud
Does it sound like your regrets
Your missed chances or questions unanswered?
Thought we'd look so good together
Why'd you make me play the role of the fool
Now they all know that I got over the cool boy
