lyrics

“Bet You Think You’re Cool”
Written by Molly Hanmer & Claudia Miles ©2020
I bet you think you’re hip like that
I bet you still worship Kerouac
And just like him,
I tend to think you’re overrated

I’m sure you write a great folk song
I bet you love a-runnin’ on and on
Like you’re some
kind of Van Zandt Second Coming

I bet you think you’re cool x4

I bet you think you run this town
Love that all your lackeys hang around
The King of Clubs,
Always holding back your aces

I bet you like to walk real tall
Wearing your plaid and overalls
When in fact,
You’ve never seen a horse or stable

I bet you think you’re cool x4

But I can see right through
Every pick and strum you play
And all of your self-doubt
Bleeds right through the words you say

I bet you think you’re some outlaw
Donning a ten gallon faux pas
How unique,
You even ride a motorcycle

I bet you like to act real shy
Leaving your women high and dry
Skipping town,
Without a sound in the night

I bet you think you’re cool x4
