I'm the one your mama warned you about

When you see me, I will leave you no doubt

I'm the coolest man that ever walked this earth

I am the coolest since the day of my birth

I am the cool

I drive a little red sports car as you plainly can see

Them young girls I can't keep them away from me

You know Madonna, well I saw her yesterday

Had too many women so I pushed her away

Walked into the paramount hotel in new york city

There were 72 women there just waiting for me

Just one problem with all these women so fine

So many of them, so little time

I am the cool

I wear the coolest clothes that ever can be

I look so good even Calvin Klein stares at me

Red bands on my hat, a glas of chavvers in my hand

One look at me and the little girls understand

Someone come up with a gun to steal the rolex of my wrist

Two seconds later he was down with one blow of my fist

I dragged his sorry ass to the town in the middle of the day

I hung him up to a flagpole with a sign "don't mess with screamin jay"

I am the cool

The finest restaurants roll me all and know me by my name

They gave me the best table and sent everyone else away

Feasant under glass, lobster and steak tartar

Finished it off with a fine cuban cigare

Headed on back home to my penthouse suite

With a fine young lady that's good enough to eat

She feeds me grapes and cheese and opens a dom perignon

We made love untill the night time's gone

I am the cool

Frozen

Cold

Icicles on the toes

I am the cool

I'm winter

I'm a blizzard
