Fool on a stool.
Vivian Timmins 1955 (United States)
Every day
On your stool
The one at the bar
By the pool
Does that make you cool?
Mom's in the front house
You're in the back
I guess at some point
You'll throw her a snack.
Sprinkle some water on the lawn
Sanding something stupid till dawn
Sitting on your stool
Makes you cool
Wish I knew somebody that had a pool
Drink some cokes
buy some smokes
Hit the weed pipe for a few tokes
Tell the same jokes
You know you're cool
The guy on the stool
In the back by the pool
They all look up to you
Because they can't look down
You can't look lower than the ground.
Time to polish something you found with your faithful friends sitting all around...HARK what is that sound, I look around, water streaming off you to the ground, as I sat on your stool
You fell in the pool so far away from cool, when you cried, why did she do that to me... I wanted to slap you but I was cool. That's when you proved you are a fool. Here, take back your stool.
