Cool
1957 Broadway lyrics
RIFF
Boy, boy, crazy boy,
Get cool, boy.
Got a rocket
In your pocket,
Keep coolly cool, boy.
Don't get hot,
'Cause man, you got
Some high times ahead.
Take it slow,
And Daddy-o,
You can live it up and die in bed.
Boy, boy, crazy boy,
Stay loose, boy.
Breeze it, buzz it,
Easy does it,
Turn off the juice, boy.
Go, man, go,
But not like a yoyo schoolboy.
Just play it cool, boy,
Real cool.
1961 film lyrics
ICE
Boy, boy, crazy boy,
Get cool, boy.
Got a rocket,
In your pocket,
Keep coolly cool, boy.
Don't get hot,
'Cause man, you got
Some high times ahead.
Take it slow
And, Daddy-o,
You can live it up and die in bed!
Boy, boy, crazy boy,
Stay loose, boy.
Breeze it, buzz it,
Easy does it,
Turn off the juice, boy.
Go man, go,
But not like a yoyo schoolboy.
Just play it cool, boy,
Real cool.
