Supercool

You came walking by where I was sitting pretty
Said, "Hey, babe, do you want to dance with me?"
And I noticed that you acted kind of funky
As if somehow you were trying to be

Supercool, no one's fool, just a rolling stone
Acting out your party piece
In Valentino tones

Smoking untipped cigarettes
And calling me a doll
Sometimes I really wonder
If you're happening at all

Oh, supercool, I gotta lose you
And your hip asides
All this fair out, yeah, yeah, right on, baby
Teenage talking jive

Supercool, go back to school
Let's keep the whole thing clean
As you would say in your sweet way
You're really not my scene

You cocked your brand-new felt hat to one side
Like Bogart used to do on the screen
You've got to realize that I'm a big girl
Older enough to know you're early in your teens
