Cool Girl

lyrics

COOL GIRL

she walks in with a too cool strut
she don't care if you think she's a slut
she's too busy making everything right
she don't have to bark she's got enough bite
she's in control of her very own world
she don't know what it feels like for a girl
she's not bothered by any circumstance
she knows she's cool enough and lucky with a chance

(b-section):
and i always wanted to be just like that girl
and i always wanted to be inside her world
she don't need a saviour

(chorus):
i want to be just like you
i want to be just like you
i want to be just like you
but i'm just a starstruck fool

she's been in movies she plays guitar
she dates the boss and she's a superstar
but make no mistake no don't get me wrong
this ain't a fake-ass girl power song
i used to work with her in a big record shop
all the straight boys they wanted her on top
a little debbie harry and a little chrissie hynde
and a whole heap of nothing but her own damn mind

(repeat b-section)
(repeat chorus)

(bridge):
and she don't have to throw it in your face
when she walks in and lights up the place
she's obviously fabulous but not without grace
and she's not too afraid to admit her mistakes
but she ain't gonna dwell she'll learn her lesson well
and then she's gonna go back to raisin' 'little hell
she knows what she wants and what she's gonna get
in the life of a girl who lives without regret

what a cool girl
what a cool girl
what a cool fucken' girl
she don't need a saviour

(repeat chorus x2)
i'm just a starstruck fool
i'm just a starstruck fool and i wanna be a cool girl

RexySpice Toronto, Ontario

I aim for an aesthetic that is equal parts lyrical wit and acoustic angst. If Chrissie Hynde and Billy Bragg had a kid raised by Madonna and Ani DiFranco, I’d like to think he’d sound just like me. I used to call myself acoustic punk, but that felt rather conflicting and restricting given my love of the Spice Girls. I’m spending 2016 recording a long-overdue album and can’t wait for you hear it. ... more
