Deuce and domino!

I originally found these at a website (which i cannot remember the url to so apologies for that) but i am a fan of '50s music and this tune was kickass so ... here are the lyrics!

Bop boba da doo op

Come let me take you back.
Turn back the hands of time.
Thats when I discovered who.
Thats when I made it mine.

My pants couldn't be too tight.
Thats when I learned to fight.
James Dean defined the day.
Sue took me all the way.
Cool. I'm all about cool.
No other code.
No other rule.
But you, you act like a fool.
You've gotta be bold.
Gonna take you to school.
I'm all about cool.

If you want to be cool.
half as cool as me.
You'll be careful what you say.
How you look at me.
If not, you'll pay a price
far beyond your means.
You don't want the trouble that I bring.
Grease back my hair just right.
Suzie, she wore her sweaters tight.
Mom, hair piled way up high.
In the back seat on Saturday night.
Drag racing, summer nights.
My Chevy like thunder role.
Come around picking fights
outside the picture show.

Ooh, I'm all about cool.
No other echo.
No other rule.
But you, you act like a fool.
You've gotta be bold.
Gonna take you to school.
I'm all about cool.

If you want to be cool,
half as cool as me.
You'll be careful what you say
and how you look at me.
If not, you'll pay a price
far beyond your means.
You don't want the trouble that I'll bring.

I love this song.

Here's some differences in the lyrics, at least my interpretations, which obviously could be wrong.

Mom, hair piled way up high.

I always thought it said 'blonde hair piled way up high.' Guess I could see it being 'mom' too, but that sounds a little weird coming right before the line 'in the backseat on Saturday night" without much pause.

no other code

I don't hear the hard 'd' at the end. I think it says 'No other goal.'

You've gotta be bold...
You better be bold

I always thought it sounded like 'You dug a big hole," which rhymes with 'No other goal.'

No other echo.

Sounds more like 'No other goal' to me.

In the words of Hurricane Helms, "I'm just sayin'" and I might be wrong.

Edit: The words are easier to decipher when you listen to the proper version rather than the version from the iTunes album.
