The Birth Of Uncool
[Intro]
Sounds like last summer
Sounds like last summer
Sounds like last summer
Sounds like last summer

[Verse 1]
If sounding like last summer is such a bummer
Then how good's what you're in to gonna be, come winter?
If sounding like last year is something you should fear
Then this year won't be fine given twelve months' time
Why is it that you rave about what is today's
When you'll react with sorrow same time tomorrow?
Why not enjoy the sound of summer all year round?
There is a place, you know, where the groove police don't go

[Chorus]
Uncool
Hey babe you're looking un–...keeeewl
Uncool
Unkeeeewl
Uncool

[Interlude]
Sounds like last summer
Sounds like last summer
[Verse 2]
If something's bad, it's bad, that's a quality it had
On the day that it was born, no matter what the norm
Ask if it's fake or true, not "Is it old or new?"
You learn what things are fine, all it takes is time

[Chorus]
Uncool
Hey babe you're looking un–...keeeewl
Uncool
You and me, go for a drive... unkeeeewl
Uncool

[Bridge]
There is a place, you know, where the groove police don't go
Bob's your un–...keeeewl
Very uncooool

[Verse 3]
Let me take you to uncool
Where old school is still the golden rule
Where appearances never flatter
Where the rhyming that matters is more than street patter
Where the stars of R'n'B are still old and ugly
Where nobody spells new with a "U"
Let me take you to uncool
[Verse 4]
Let me take you to uncool
Where Ben Lee still dates some chick from high school
Where it's not post-modern to like Kiss
Your desert island discs are full of greatest hits
(If something's bad, it's bad, that's a quality it had)
Where perception isn't reality
Where you get a text message from a library
Where the Emperor's new clothes have got nobody fooled
Let me take you to uncool
