Ian Dury - It Ain't Cool lyrics

You think it's cool to make me wait with bated breath for what you'll say You think it's cool to be the overlord of all that you survey You think it's clever being clever that you wear your fortune well You think it's cool to be the foxy one, but time alone will tell That it ain't cool (It ain't cool) It ain't cool (It ain't cool) You think it's cool to be the comic, making cracks at my expense You think it's cool to sit in judgement when I ain't got no defence You think it's witty being witty when you know my tongue is tied You think it's cool to be a prankster but your jokes are pa**ing wide It ain't cool (It ain't cool) It ain't cool (It ain't cool) It ain't cool to count your blessings one by one (it ain't cool) It ain't cool to say you've done what you ain't done (it ain't cool) It ain't cool to claim your winnings when you poop on your beginnings And another person's innings has begun You think it's cool to be a sharpy as you cut me down to size But it ain't cool (it ain't cool) You think it's cool to brush aside the little people you despise But it ain't cool (it ain't cool) You think it's nifty being nifty, and you think you're no-one's fool But you ain't cool (you ain't cool) You think it's cool to hold your victim up to cruel ridicule But it ain't cool (it ain't cool) It ain't cool to be a cucker It ain't cool to be a crut It ain't cool to make your mucker Wait upon their if, you, but It ain't cool to think you're pucker When you're tearing off a sheet It ain't cool to make a s**er out of everyone you meet It ain't cool (it ain't cool) It ain't cool to count your blessings one by one (it ain't cool) It ain't cool to say you've done what you ain't done (it ain't cool) It ain't cool to do subtraction, when you're checking every fraction Now your little piece of action has begun It ain't cool (it ain't cool) It ain't cool (it ain't cool) It ain't cool (it ain't cool) It ain't cool (it ain't cool) It ain't cool (it ain't cool) It ain't cool (it ain't cool) It ain't cool (it ain't cool) It ain't cool (it ain't cool) It ain't cool
