The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We're through being cool
We're through being cool
Eliminate the ninnies and the twits
Going to bang some heads
Going to beat some butts
Time to show those evil spuds what's what
If you live in a small town
You might meet a dozen or two
Young alien types who step out
And dare to declare
We're through being cool
We're through being cool
Spank the pank who try to drive you nuts
Time to clean some house
Be a man or a mouse
Waste those who make it tough to get around
If you live in a big place
Many factions underground
Chase down mister hinky dink
So no trace can be found
If you live in a big place
Many factions underground
Chase down mister hinky dink
So no trace can be found
We're through being cool
We're through being cool
Eliminate the ninnies and the twits
Put the tape on erase
Rearrange a face
We always liked Picasso anyway
If you live in a small town
You might meet a dozen or two
Young alien types who step out
And dare to declare
We're through being cool
We're through being cool
Eliminate the ninnies and the twits
We're through being cool
We're through being cool
Spank the pank who try to drive you nuts
(Mash 'em)
We're through being cool
We're through being cool
