1.  Hot Dog hanging with the sewer rats,

      He thinks he’s hip, yeah, he thinks he’s phat

      He learned bad words from those rats of the gutter

      Can’t say these words in front of his mother

CHORUS: “That ain’t cool,” say Cool Cat.

                 “You look like a fool when you do that.

                 You don’t need those things, it’s a natural fact

                 Just be yourself,” say Cool Cat

2.  “Skate boards fun,” say Hot Dog. “Yeah, it’s easier than falling off a log.”

      Showing off without his helmet when he hits the street

      Ouch, he hurts his head when it hits concrete

3.  Now Hot Dog he’s just a little pup

      He thinks that smokin’ make him look grown-up

      But it makes him smell bad and it hurts his lungs

      Coughin’ his head off can’t be much fun

4.  Hot Dog sees a collar in the store

      It’s the most awesomest collar he’s ever seen before

      But this puppy he ain’t got no money

      And he takes it anyway, then he thinks it’s funny

BRIDGE: Now the coolest thing that you can be

                Is a pup others look up to for integrity

                The coolest thing that you can get

                Is when you’ve earned others respect

5.  Hot Dog startin’ to smartin’ up

      It takes some work to be a respectable pup

      It ain’t always easy to do the right thing

      But when you do you feel like a king

CHORUS: “Yeah, that’s way cool,” say Cool Cat.

                 “You look like a king when you do that.

                 You don’t need those things, that’s a natural fact

                 Just be yourself,” say Cool Cat
