"Through Being Cool" is a song by American new wave band Devo, written by Mark Mothersbaugh, Gerald Casale, and Bob Mothersbaugh.

The song was a direct attack on new fans who didn't understand Devo's message.

The song was also featured in the 1981 animated film Heavy Metal as well as the 2005 superhero comedy Sky High, with the latter version performed by alternative rock band They Might Be Giants.

Record World said that "a boss bass groove sets the pace for dancers while the rhythm guitars add a funky flavor and keyboard melodies go after pop ears.

"[1] The music video had Devo taking a limited role, focusing on a team of kids clad in Devo "Action Vests" attacking arrogant and ignorant people with "spudguns."
