As cool as i am

Yeah, there was a time I didn't like the love, I liked theclimbers
I was no sister then, I was running out of time and one liners
And I was afraid, like you are when you're too young to know thetime
And so I watch the way you take your fear and horde the horizon
You point, you have a word for every woman you can lay your eyeson
Like you own them just because you bought the time
And you turn to me, you say you hope I'm not threatened

Oh I'm not that petty
As cool as I am I thought you'd know this already
I will not be afraid of women
I will not be afraid of women

So now we're at a club, you watch the woman dancing, she isdrunk
She is smiling and she's falling in a slow descending funk
And the whole bar is loud and proud and everybody's trying,yeah
You play the artist, saying is it how she moves or how she looks?
I say, it's lonlieness suspended to our own like grapplinghooks
And as long as she's got noise she's fine
But I could teach her how I learned to dance when the music'sended

Oh and that's not petty
As cool as I am I thought you'd know this already
I will not be afraid of women
I will not be afraid of women

You tried to make me doubt, to make me guess
Tried to make me feel like a little less
Oh I liked you when your soul was bared
I thought you knew how to be scared
And now it's amazing what you did to make me stay
But truth is just like time, it catches up and it just keepsgoing

And so I'm leaving, you can find out how much better things canget
And if it helps, I'd say I feel a little worse than I did when wemet
So when you find someone else, you can try again, it might worknext time
You look out of the kitchen window and you shake your head andsay low
If I could believe that stuff I'd say that woman has a halo
And I look out and say yeah she's really blond
And then I go outside to join the others, I am the others

Oh and that's not easy
I don't know what you saw I want somebody who sees me
I will not be afraid of women
I will not be afraid of women
