It's A Nice Thought

by Sarah Moule

It's cool to be cool when you're cool You know that you're nobody's fool It's tough when you're in a tight spot Pretending you're cool when you're not But it's swell to be cool when you're hot You meet any threat with a shrug And bigshots will give you a hug It's ok to drive an old car When everyone knows you're a star But it's swell to be cool when you are When you inhabit a real cool venue Envy and greed ain't on the menu You don't get crazu You don't get sore You never have to worry about being a bore Sometimes being cool takes it toll Depression grabs hold of your soul But you pull yourself out of the hole And take one more shot at the goal Without fear of a flop you float right to the top Where love meets you for lunch by the pool It's cool to be cool when you're cool It's cool to be cool when you're cool

Verse: When our music and movies were black and white in the not so good old days You could always be sure it was time for flight when you heard this well worn phrase Chorus: Feet do your stuff When the game is way too tough You don't have to play Just look down and say 'Feet do your stuff' Caught in the buff By a brute who cuts up rough You'd do best to fly Grab your pants and cry 'Feet do your stuff' You'll find it comes in handy When you're in an iffy spot It's better to play and run away Than stay and risk getting shot There just isn't time To remember love sublime Though the kisses were sweet Better vote with your feet 'Feet do your stuff' SOLOS Brain get to work Can't you see what dangers lurk Just forget your shoes You got more to lose Feet do your stuff Hands must you shake Now that brain is wide awake Just forget last night 'Cause it's time for flight Feet do your stuff We'll hit the carpet running There's no time to mess around The message of fear has got to your ear Now let's cover some ground There just isn't time To remember love sublime Though the kisses were sweet Better vote with your feet Feet do your stuff

When your computer crashes And you lose a work of art And your big dream turns to ashes And some bad girl breaks your heart I'll help to mend it When your sweet set up smashes And you're angry and confused And you don't know where your stash is And you don't feel too amused I'll be your friend Right now everybody knows you People stop and stare and try to catch your eye Some day when the zeitgeist throws you I'll be there to share your dish of humble pie When all your plans go pear-shaped And it seems you've lost your aim And your lapses can't be landscaped 'Cause there's no one else to blame When the public doesn't love you anymore You'll be glad to see me knocking at your door I'll kiss the tears from your lashes When your computer crashes I'll lick the tears from your lashes When your computer crashes

Although I hear your story It's keeps getting overridden By this tune in my head Your beauty's in its glory But its radiance is hidden By this tune in my head My diamond earring twinkle To the tricky little rhythms Of this tune in my head The ice cubes seem to tinkle And the silver joins in with 'em To this tune in my head This tune keeps playing And I've got to get it down This tune keeps saying Maybe love is in another town I can't make a commitment When I'm constantly distracted By this tune in my head My heart and all its contents Have developed and reacted To this tune in my head We try to make connections In the sunshine and the showers On the street or in bed But I can't show real affection When I spend so many hours Being shadowed and led By this tune in my head By the moon and this tune in my head
