"You're Too Cool" lyrics

"You're Too Cool"

Love don't live at home, oh no, it slithers in the wild
I met her at the Biltmore, she was cold and over-styled
Took all my money and took all my pride
She may not be a pharaoh, but she guzzled down the Nile

I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down
Every morning chipping away
'Til the walls fall down

Won't you cry on my shoulder, won't you laugh at my jokes?
It's okay to relax in this forest of folks
Cause nobody's aiming a stick at your spokes
So won't you cry on my shoulder, won't you laugh at my jokes?

I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down
Every morning chipping away
'Til the walls fall down
I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down
Every morning chipping away
'Til the walls fall down

I'm wide awake, I'm wide awake, I'm wide awake
And now you're back in town (I know you want to know)
To show your New York crown (Oo-ooh)
But now you're much too proud
You're too cool
But now you're much too proud
You're too cool
You're too cool, hey!

On the road I dream of home and when at home I dream of action
Our apartments are all haunted by the ghost of satisfaction
Cause we all want something that's bigger than fashion
So spill out your heart brother, show me your passion
Oh, spill out your heart sister, show me your passion

I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down
Every morning chipping away
'Til the walls fall down
I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down
Every morning chipping away
'Til the walls fall down

I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down
Every morning chipping away
'Til the walls fall down
I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down
And every morning chipping away
'Til the walls fall down, oh
I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down
Every morning chipping away
'Til the walls fall down
And I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down, oh
Every morning chipping away
'Til the walls fall down, oh
I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down
Every morning chipping away (Every morning, every morning)
'Til the walls fall down
I can tell we'll never be safe
'Til the walls fall down
