This page covers the version of Cooling that Tori sang in concert in Miami, FL on October 23, 1996 during the Dew Drop Inn tour. That was the very first time Tori revealed the song to the public. The song was later completed and released as a B-side to the UK Single for "Spark" in 1998.

Tori introduced this song by saying, "This is a song that was supposed to be on Boys for Pele... and it's probably gonna be on the next record. So, ummm..."

(INTRO VERSE:)

Maybe I didn't like to hear
But I still can't believe Speed Racer is dead

So then i thought I'd make some plans
The fire thought she'd really rather be water instead

(FIRST VERSE:)

And Piggy got a message for me
from Jesus
And I heard every word that she was saying

And I know I have been
driven like the snow

CHORUS:

This is cooling
This is cooling
This is cooling
Faster than I can
This is cooling
Faster than I can

VERSE:

So then I tried to make some plans
The fire thought she'd really rather be water instead
This ocean is wrapped around that pinapple tree

And is your place in heaven
Worth giving up these kisses
These kisses

VERSE:

And Piggy got a message for me
From Jesus
And I heard every word that she had said

And I know I have been
driven like the snow

CHORUS:

This is cooling
This is cooling
Faster than I can
This is cooling
Faster than I can

Yes, this is cooling
This is cooling
