Playin' It Cool!

Oh, I have a crush, but I'm not going to

rush things...

I'll hang back and play it cool

hang back and play it cool...

Yeah, I: really like this girl, but she

don't have a clue about it

I'm acting smooth and playin' it cool

hang back, playin' it cool...

My friends all say I should call her

today

or send her some candy and flowers

but, that ain't my style, I'm gonna give it

a while

while lurking in the shadows...

I'll stick with my plan, although she

don't know who I am

It's all just part of playin' it cool

I want sit down beside her and tell her

that I like her

but, it's probably better that I'm playin'

it cool

Hang back, playin' it cool...

Chorus:

Playin' it cool

Oh, that's my technique...

Playin' it cool!

I been doing it for weeks now...

Playin' it cool! And being discreet...

It's not a mistake, It's mystique...

Now I see this other guy hanging around

the girl I like, but

She'll never like him, he ain't playin' it

cool

and they're holding hands, but this guy

don't understand that

he's better off playin' it cool, like me...

Hand back, playin' it cool...

She's thinking I'm mysterious,

because I haven't said a word to her,

not even once

I look away when she smiles at me, and

soon she will see

that I'm playin' it cool, and that she

really likes me.

(Chorus)
