Screamin' Jay Hawkins — I Am the Cool

I'm the one your mama warned you about When you see me, I will leave you no doubt I'm the coolest man that ever walked this earth I've been the coolest since the day of my birth I am the cool I drive a little red sports car, as you plainly can see Them young girls, I can't keep 'em away from me You know Madonna? Well I saw her yesterday Had too many women so I pushed her away Walked into the Paramount Hotel in New York City There were 72 women there just waiting for me Just one problem with all these women so fine: So many of them, so little time I am the cool I wear the coolest clothes that ever could be I look so good even Calvin Klein stares at me Red bands on my hat, a glass of chavvers in my hand One look at me and the little girls understand Someone come up with a gun to steal the rolex off my wrist Two seconds later he was down with one blow of my fist I dragged his sorry ass to the town in the middle of the day I hung him up on a flagpole with a sign, "Don't mess with Screamin' Jay" I am the cool The finest restaurants, well they all know me by my name They gave me the best table and send everyone else away Pheasant under glass, lobster and steak tartar Finished it off with a fine cuban cigar Headed on back home to my penthouse suite With a fine young lady who's good enough to eat She feeds me grapes and cheese and opens a Dom Perignon We made love until the night time's gone I am the cool Frozen Cold Icicles on the toes I am the cool I'm winter I'm a blizzard
