Totally Uncool

I've got no tattoos
No jewelry or fancy shoes
I shine like a boring rock
Kicked by a kid down a cracked sidewalk

I listen to old jazz
Everything on the radio is bad
I'm not controversial or shocking
Just sensible and slightly mocking

The coolest thing I do is smoke
And even that, these days
Is a health hazard, the trendy would say
For the spiritually broke

Maybe so, maybe so
I'm totally uncool
A dinosaur, as a rule

Pass me by, perchance
Spare a spare glance
You see what you seek
And honey, it ain't me

Well that's fine 
Because I been around the block
Many times
And I don't mind

Yo.
