Some of the "coolest licks" are some of the very basic licks - just played at the right time. Doesn't have to be a fancy or complicated lick.

Adding to Jack's comment. Rhythmic variation or placement of the "same old phrase" can create new sounds. Many phrases start on the beat, so if you start them on the second leg of the eighth note (or sixteenth note) it will have a syncopated sound. (Add an eight rest to the beginning of a phrase.) It sounds less "square".
