Cool
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I got a penthouse in Manhattan, two more in Malibu.
I bought a '87s Cadillac Seville, girl I got a Mazarati too.
I wear diamonds on my fingers, I got a couple on my toes.
I wear the finest perfume money can buy, it keeps me smellin' like a rose.
If you wonder how I do it, there's just one simple rule.
I'm just cool. Honey, baby, can't you see?
Girl, I'm so cool. Ain't nobody bad like me?
C O O L.
What's that spell? - C O O L.
I might dine in San Francisco, dance all night in Rome.
I go any freakin' place I want to, and my Lear Jet brings me home.
I got ladies by the dozens, I got money by the ton.
Just ain't nobody better, heaven knows that I'm the one.
And it's all because of something that I didn't learn in school.
I'm just cool. Honey, baby, can't you see?
Girl, I'm so cool. Ain't nobody bad like me?
Sing it baby. - C O O L.
What's that spell? - C O O L.
That spell cool. - Cool.
What time is it?
Listen baby, it takes a lot of lovin' and a little money to be a friend of mine.
But baby, if you know how to shake that thing, I'll try to squeeze a little time.
Cuz I make love, love every mornin' to who's ever by my side.
Well, you might say that I'm a nymphomaniac, but it keeps me satisfied.
When I look into the mirror, it just tells me something I already know.
I'm so cool! Honey, baby, can't you see?
Girl, I'm so cool. Ain't nobody bad like me?
Sing it. - C O O L.
What's that spell? - C O O L.
What time is it? - Cool.
I'm so cool.
Cool, that's right. I'm cooler than Santa Claus, baby.
Ain't nobody bad like me? Somebody pinch me.
I must be dreamin', I know that's right.
Cuz there ain't nobody bad like me.
What time is it?
Is it time to get my hair done yet?
I said, "What time is it?"?
Time to just walk and shake my head.
I'm cool 'til I'm dead.
Enough has been said, Come on baby, let's go to bed.
Everybody. - Walk, shake my head!
Cool 'til I'm dead!
Enough has been said, let's go to bed!
When I look into the mirror, It just tells me something I already know.
I'm so cool. Ain't nobody bad like me?
I'm so cool. I said, ain't nobody bad like me?
All together now. - C O O L.
What's that spell? - C O O L.
Band? - Yes!
Is anybody hot? - No!
You know why? - Why?
Cuz we're cool. - Cool!
Yes! No! Why? Cool!
Oh, I'm so cool
