She's Cool

Lyrics

SHE'S COOL (Mike Borok, Bill Philbrick)

There she goes, my friend
She moves just like a dream
And she looks so good in her pre-washed jeans
But I'm stuck behind a counter, taking orders
From all of these suburban sons and daughters
Fast food and carbonated water
And I go wild at just the thought of her

She's cool as fins on a Cadillac
She's fine as California wine
That's right, the girl is on the fast track
How I wish she were mine

Here she comes again
I think she looked my way
But it's hard to tell--she's always wearing shades
And girls wish that they could imitate her
Boys try but they just can't penetrate her
I'm a guy who'd sure appreciate her
If I could only get a date with her

She's cool as fins on a Cadillac
She's fine as California wine
That's right, she knows that she's a class act
How I wish she were mine

Now, everybody knows I'm just an ordinary guy
And everybody says it shows
But I suppose I'm not too cool to try
Do you think I'm just a fool to pursue her?
I should stay at home and play with my computer
I tell myself I could mean something to her
If I could only be as cool as her

But she's sharp as fins on a Cadillac
She's fine as California wine
That's right, my heart has been hijacked
How I wish she were mine

She's a runaway train on a steep track
A jet plane warming up on the tarmac
A heroine in a Harlequin paperback
A fashion queen on a teen magazine rack
She's the razor's edge, she's the leader of the pack
A man-eater looking for a quick snack
She's a current event, she's a matter of fact
She invades my dreams in a pre-dawn sneak attack (she's cool...so cool)
I'm gonna learn to rap and slick my hair back
Play some air guitar and always wear black
Let 'em laugh, let 'em talk behind my back
Let 'em have their fun, let 'em give me flack
I'm gonna get that girl, I'm gonna get the knack
I want to park my car in her cul-de-sac
