Be Cool - Joni Mitchell

If there’s one rule to this game

Everybody’s gonna name

It’s… be cool

If you’re worried or uncertain

If your feelings are hurtin'

You’re a fool

If you can’t keep cool

Charm 'em

Don’t alarm 'em

Keep things light

Keep your worries out of sight

And play it cool

Play it cool

Fifty-fifty

Fire and ice

If your heart is on the floor

'Cause you’ve just seen your lover

Comin' through the door with a new fool

Be cool

Don’t you sweat it

Start right in right now tryin' to forget it

Be cool

Don’t get riled

Smile—keep it light

Be your own best friend tonight

And play it cool

Play it cool

Fifty-fifty

Fire and ice

Don’t get jealous

Don’t get over-zealous

Keep your cool

Don’t whine

Kiss off that flaky valentine

You’re nobody’s fool

Be cool fool

Be cool

(Lots of other fish in the sea)

Play it cool

Play it cool

Fifty-fifty

Fire and ice

So if there’s one rule to this game

Everybody’s gonna name

It’s… be cool

If you’re worried or uncertain

If your feelings are hurtin'

You’re a fool if you can’t keep cool

They want you to

Charm 'em

Don’t alarm 'em

Keep things light

Keep your worries out of sight

And play it cool

Play it cool

Fifty-fifty

Fire and ice
