Too Cool Queenie
Rebel Rhythms: Too Cool Queenie's Timeless Tale
Lyrics
There was this girl who lived not too long ago
Referring to a girl from the past
As a matter of fact I think she lives still
Implying she might still be alive
She knew she could do no wrong
Confident in her actions
Just singin' those songs
Expressing herself through songs
That we all knew
Shared experiences or familiarity
She would always crash the party
Actively involved in social gatherings
It was no surprise
No one was surprised by her actions
It was for her
Her presence was anticipated
Too Cool Queenie
Nickname or title for the girl
There was this boy
Introduction of a boy character
He played in a rock-n-roll band
He was part of a music band
And he wasn't half bad at saving the world (saving the world)
Implying his efforts to make a positive impact
She said he could do no right
Her critical opinion of the boy
So he took his life
He ended his life due to her opinion
His story is true
Confirming the truth in his story
She would always crash the party
Repeated behavior of intruding at parties
It was no surprise
Her presence was expected at gatherings
It was for her
Her inclination to attend such events
It's okay 'cause what goes around, comes around
Implying the concept of karma
It's all right 'cause what goes around, comes around
Reiterating the concept of karma
And now this girl yeah, she got real famous
Her rise to fame and wealth
And she made lots of money
Successful in making money
And some of his too (saving the world)
Implying she profited from the boy's legacy
But still she thinks she can do no wrong
Her unchanged attitude despite success
Just playing those songs
Continuing to perform her songs
She's all too cool
Reiterating her perceived coolness
