Too Cool For School Lyrics - Fountains Of Wayne

He walks alone under the big city lights 

He always knows just when the time is right 

He never shows what he's thinking 

He keeps it inside because he's too cool for school 

He comes alive when the sun goes down 

He gets it right you know he's always down 

He's got one eye open and his ear to the ground 

Man he's too cool for school 

He's an operator, he's a real player 

And if you mess with him, you know you'll never win 

He's an instigator, enemy eliminator 

And when he knocks you better, you better let him in 

He's got his own way of getting things done 

He's always looking out for number one 

Don't try to beat him 'cause he's already won 

Man he's too cool for school 

He's an operator, he's a real player 

And if you mess with him, you know you'll never win 

He's an instigator, enemy eliminator 

And when he knocks you better, you better let him in 

He walks alone under the big city lights 

He always knows just when the time is right 

He never shows what he's thinking 

He keeps it inside 

Because he's too cool for school 

Because he's too cool for school 

Because he's too cool for school
