Pau - Old School Cool

Old School Cool (c) 2025 by the Entangled Pair

She's hot, yes, but she's also cool
she is a gem, she is a jewel
I think she's great (and I'm no fool)
she beats those drums like she's old school

she pounds those skins, sometimes it's funny
she hits them like they owe her money
and one thing more I'll tell you honey
she's on that kit whether cloudy or sunny

She's been that way right from the start
plays from the the soul, plays from the heart
she always does more than her part
it's not just passion, it's her art

looking back I am that fool
dug in like a Missouri mule
and if this doesn't break some rule
she's not just cool - she's old school cool

Tribute to a young lady who started playing drums at age 12 and formed a heavy metal rock band with her sisters Daniela (14) and Alejandra (9), in 2013 - The Warning - out of Monterrey, Nueva Leon, Mexico. The big break came for them when their YouTube cover of 'Enter Sandman', which they posted on YouTube so their grandparents could see them, went viral in 2014.
