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
