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}
