A few words from the Alleged Artist:
This was the best song (not saying much) from the album "Broke Again", released in August of 1986, right before I started my senior year of high school. The topic, of course, is that my body temperature was always around 90 degrees Fahrenheit, which is way too cool. I realize it may sound like the lyrics are saying something else, but if you think about it, the temperature idea works just fine. Well, don't think too hard. The mind is a terrible thing to tax.


i'm too cool

everywhere i've ever gone, people said to me
i'd give just about anything if i were you and you were me
but can you blame them, let's face it, i'm really great
people line up just to look at me
all the girls want me for a date

it's a crying shame how wonderful i am
everybody who knows me is a personal fan

yeah, i'm too cool to be with anyone
no one's in my class
and you're lucky to hang around with me
ain't i a kick in the... assk anyone who's been with me
they ain't no fools
they'll all tell you right away
i'm too cool

no one will ever come along that'll be on my level
i'm a stud, i'm the king, i'm a loner, i'm a rebel
but i won't make you worship me or build me a shrine
just throw large sums of money
that'll be just fine

it's hard to believe how terrific i am
maybe someday i'll let you touch my hand

oh, i'm too cool to be with anyone
no one's in my class
and you're lucky to hang around with me
ain't i a kick in the... assk anyone who's been with me
they ain't no fools
they'll all tell you right away
i'm too cool
