Suddenly Cool by The Methadones Lyrics
Do you remember when she'd follow us around
With stars in her eyes all over the town
Showing up every place we went
Pretending like it was an accident?
I thought she was pretty lame
When I tried to figure out her stupid game
Soon enough, I would find what was really on her mind
Attempts to climb the social ladder
But no one was paying much attention
Trying hard with things that hardly mattered
And was somewhat embarrassing
Ah ah-ah ah-ah
Moved to Ukrainian Village a few months ago
And started hanging out at the Fireside Bowl
With a new look and an attitude
That went against everything I once knew
I thought I would push aside any problems I had
Giving benefit of the doubt
In such a short time much had changed
Suddenly, I was the odd man out
I must admit I was a bit surprised, taken aback
To be greeted with a roll of the eyes and a condescending laugh
[Spoken]
You must be kidding me
When did you become suddenly cool?
I saw you last year, and you were such a tool
Then you dyed your hair black
Bought rimmed glasses to match
And a whole new circle of friends
Suddenly cool
I felt like I was back in the third grade
In a playground all the hipsters made
Obeying every rule of the punk rock handbook
Drinking Pabst, the Betty Paige look
You should've heard her try to speak
If you weren't the flavor of the week
Bored and above it all, leaning up against the wall
I was hoping that I would be wrong
That you did some growing up
It just confirmed what I suspected all along
In all its absurdity
When did you become suddenly cool?
I saw you last year, and you were such a tool
Then you dyed your hair black
Bought rimmed glasses to match
And a whole new circle of friends
Suddenly cool
Suddenly cool
Oh, when did you become suddenly cool?
Suddenly cool
[x4]
With stars in her eyes all over the town
Showing up every place we went
Pretending like it was an accident?
I thought she was pretty lame
When I tried to figure out her stupid game
Soon enough, I would find what was really on her mind
Attempts to climb the social ladder
But no one was paying much attention
Trying hard with things that hardly mattered
And was somewhat embarrassing
Ah ah-ah ah-ah
Moved to Ukrainian Village a few months ago
And started hanging out at the Fireside Bowl
With a new look and an attitude
That went against everything I once knew
I thought I would push aside any problems I had
Giving benefit of the doubt
In such a short time much had changed
Suddenly, I was the odd man out
I must admit I was a bit surprised, taken aback
To be greeted with a roll of the eyes and a condescending laugh

Suddenly cool
Oh, when did you become suddenly cool?
Suddenly cool
