PLAYIN` IT COOL — текст песни (Timothy B. Schmit)

(J. D. Souther/T. B. Schmit/J. Leo/V. Melamed)

It`s a long hot afternoon
Staring at the same old books
Teacher says you`ll be out soon
But, she don`t know how long it looks
You wanna get outside
You wanna go for a ride
And start playin` it cool
They tell you graduate
But, I just can`t wait
To start playin` it cool
Pretty girls everywhere
Walkin` up and down the hall
Then you see her standing there
Leaning up against the wall
She could be dying to dance
You got to take that chance
On playin` it cool
You better tell her twice
`Cuz she`s a little too nice
She`s got to play it cool
Play it cool
Play it cool

One more afternoon
Starin` at the parking lot
I hope I get out soon
`Cuz summertime is all we got
You did the hardest part
Now it`s time to start
Playin` it cool
Nobody really knows
That`s the way it goes
When you`re playin` it cool
Play it cool
Play it cool
C-O-O-COOL

You wanna get outside
You wanna go for a ride
And start playin` it cool
They tell you graduate
But, I just can`t wait
To start playin` it cool
We did the hardest part
Now it`s time to start
Playin` it cool
Nobody really knows
That`s the way it goes
When you`re playin` it cool
Playin` it cool
Uou got to play it cool
Playin` it cool
