School’s out for summer, and ‘70s rocker Alice Cooper is running for president again, a shtick he’s stuck with every four years since the release of his song “Elected” in 1972.

In a campaign video, the music artist says, “Well, I’m Alice Cooper and I’m a troubled man for troubled times. I have absolutely no idea what to do, so I should fit right in.”

His campaign website, AliceforPresident.com, encourages people to “stay in the loop” with the presidential campaign and sign up to receive updates on the “campaign kick-off, ongoing virtual rallies, Q&A sessions, and more.”

A link for his “campaign trail” takes visitors to his website to purchase tickets for his tour.

In a 2018 interview with The Guardian, the “School’s Out” singer said that he doesn’t like “to mix politics and rock ’n’ roll,” but that he’s very into humanitarian work.

“I’ll contribute to anything humanitarian. Helping people who can’t help themselves. But when musicians are telling people who to vote for, I think that’s an abuse of power,” he told the outlet. “You’re telling your fans not to think for themselves, just to think like you. Rock ’n’ roll is about freedom — and that’s not freedom.”

He has said that rock stars getting involved with politics is “the worst idea ever.”

The singer known for his raspy voice and crazy stage shows is the founder of a nonprofit organization called Solid Rock that offers free after-school activities for teens in Arizona. He’s played at several charity rock shows and considers himself a humanitarian.
