The Coolest Kid in School Lyrics
I lay by the pool with a shirt over my face
Listening to her talk about her day
She said, “Look at me, what do you see?
I tried to lose some weight. It’s not the way my body looks that I can’t stand
It’s the sound my footsteps make.”
And she hadn’t eaten at all that day, or if she did, she threw it up anyway.
I looked at her, through the cloth
And almost let it slip that I was running off
To Bethlehem, Bethlehem.
She bit her lip, she answered her telephone,
That son of a bitch will never leave that girl alone.
I said, “I’m leaving and I don’t know when I’ll return.”
I said, “I condemn you to the pits of hell where you shall burn.”
But she was talking to the coolest kid in school,
So I took off my bathing suit and I jumped in the pool.
To Antartica, or Neptune, oh whatever!
Can we get that played back?
Listening to her talk about her day
She said, “Look at me, what do you see?
I tried to lose some weight. It’s not the way my body looks that I can’t stand
It’s the sound my footsteps make.”
And she hadn’t eaten at all that day, or if she did, she threw it up anyway.
I looked at her, through the cloth
And almost let it slip that I was running off
To Bethlehem, Bethlehem.
That son of a bitch will never leave that girl alone.
I said, “I’m leaving and I don’t know when I’ll return.”
I said, “I condemn you to the pits of hell where you shall burn.”
But she was talking to the coolest kid in school,
So I took off my bathing suit and I jumped in the pool.
To Antartica, or Neptune, oh whatever!
