CHORUS:
Boys go and shine up your shoes
Girls run and powder your nose
'Cause tonight you'll be shakin'
From your head down to your toes
Well feeling you're cool is as good as lookin' it
Thinkin' your're cool is as good as knowin' it
Playin' it cool is as good as blowin' it
You know you can't spend a dollar
If you ain't got a dime
You can't hook a fish if you ain't got a line
You won't catch the bus if you're not there on time
So go read up your books and sharpen your hooks
Then all you need is money and a mouth full of honey
And if you play your cards right after dancin' all night
You won't have to walk home alone
You won't have to walk home alone
Boys you can hang loose and slip up real cool
But if that lady has a love noose
She might never let you go
And if you think that maybe you're too young
And you just can not cope
The grab a razor sharp pair of cutting shears
And cut a hole right in the rope
Snip a hole right in the rope
Chorus
Well feeling you're cool is as good as lookin' it
Thinkin' your're cool is as good as knowin' it
Playin' it cool is as good as blowin' it
You know you can't spend a dollar
If you ain't got a dime
You can't hook a fish if you ain't got a line
You won't catch the bus if you're not there on time
Well if you wake up tomorrow morning
You can't remember what you did
Just ring up some of your friends
And they'll tell you just how low you slid
Oh don't be ashamed of anything you hear
After all you can't be blame
When you're drinking so much beer
Hey don't you worry
That what you did just wasn't right
Just remember brothers and sisters
After every day's another night
Just remember brothers and sisters
After every day's another night
{Chorus 4x}
