Playin' it cool

Oh, I have a crush, but I'm not going to rush things...
I'll hang back and play it cool hang back and play it cool...
Yeah, I: really like this girl, but she don't have a clue about it
I'm acting smooth and playin' it cool hang back, playin' it cool...

My friends all say I should call her today
or send her some candy and flowers
but, that ain't my style, I'm gonna give it a while
while lurking in the shadows...

I'll stick with my plan, although she don't know who I am
It's all just part of playin' it cool
I want sit down beside her and tell her that I like her
but, it's probably better that I'm playin' it cool
Hang back, playin' it cool...

Playin' it cool
Oh, that's my technique...
Playin' it cool!
I been doing it for weeks now...
Playin' it cool! And being discreet...
It's not a mistake, It's mystique...

Now I see this other guy hanging around the girl I like, but
She'll never like him, he ain't playin' it cool
and they're holding hands, but this guy don't understand
that he's better off playin' it cool, like me...
Hand back, playin' it cool...

She's thinking I'm mysterious,
because I haven't said a word to her, not even once
I look away when she smiles at me, and soon she will see
that I'm playin' it cool, and that she really likes me.

Playin' it cool
Oh, that's my technique...
Playin' it cool!
I been doing it for weeks now...
Playin' it cool! And being discreet...
It's not a mistake, It's mystique...
