Playin' It Cool

Playin' It Cool - Timothy B. Schmit

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

'Cause 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

'Cause 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

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

Playin' it cool

Playin' it cool

Got to play it cool

Playin' it cool

Playin' it cool

Playin' it cool

Got to play it cool
