Cool As Kim Deal Lyrics

Hey.
There's nothing in my art.
I'd rather be cool than be smart.
Hey.
What I'm thinking of.
I'd rather be cool than be loved.

Here's what I feel,
ba ba ba ba.
Just want a girl
as cool as Kim Deal.

Hey.
I thought that you were tough.
Well I've had it too, had it rough.
Hey.
I don't care if I'm wrong,
'cause right always takes too long.

Here's what I feel
ba ba ba ba
Just want a girl
as cool as Kim Deal.

He isn't insulting Kim Deal or being sarcastic. He's saying he wants a girl as cool as Kim Deal. Seemingly because he thinks it would make him cool (which he cares more about than being loved), so it's pretty shallow and self-deprecating.

A song about scenesters? Rather be cool than smart?

I agree with Mrs Mojo, though. Kim Deal is very cool.

Its obvi sarcasm.

I don't know guys. I think they're making fun of Kim Deal in this song. I don't this is a tribute to her coolness at all.

"I'd rather be cool than be smart." "I don't care if I'm wrong, 'cause right always takes too long." "I'd rather be cool than be loved." "There's nothing in my art."

All of these seem like insults.

She's stupid and trying to look cool. She doesn't mind being wrong as long as she fits in and seems cool. She's a bitch. Her music has to substance.
