I Can Be Cool

You say that I'm too slow

To go the way you go

But you don't understand (You don't understand)

'Cause I'm the kind of guy

That's really, really shy

But I'll take my stand

'Cause I know you dig the kind of dude

That changes his clothes with his every move

And spends more time doing you wrong

Than keeping your love true and strong

But if that what it takes to get you, baby

(I can be cool) I can be cool

(I can be cool) I can be cool

It'll only take a while

To change my losing style

'Cause you can't dig me this way, well now

I'll change the way I walk

And change the way I talk

And with the girls, I'm gonna start to play, baby

And I know my clothes will soon have to fade

Only to be replaced by those that are wild and tailor-made

And truth and trust, and love that'll last

Must become a thing far, far in the past, baby

But if that's your thing, baby

(I can be cool) I can be cool

(I can be cool) I can be cool

(Cool) I'll give you sorrow

(Cool) The same as your lovers do

(Cool) And use the language that you love

(Cool) Until the day we're through

(Cool) And slowly but surely

(Cool) I'll bring her right down to size

(Cool) And darling, darling, darling, darling, help you realize

I love you (You know I love you, baby, you know I love you, baby)

I really, I really love you (You know I love you, baby, you know I love you, baby)

But if that's your thing, baby

If that's what you really, really want

Oh, baby

I can be cool, baby

Ooh, I can be tough, sure enough

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (I can be cool)

Doo-ooh-ooh-ooh (I can be cool)
