  • I got a penthouse in Manhattan
    Two more in Malibu
    I bought a '87 Cadillac Seville
    Girl, got a Maserati too
    I wear diamonds on my fingers
    I got a couple on my toes
    I wear the finest perfume money can buy
    It keeps me smellin' like a rose

    If you wonder how I do it
    There's just one simple rule
    I'm just cool (cool)
    Oh, oh
    Honey, baby, can't you see?
    Girl, I'm so cool (cool)
    Ain't nobody bad like me (hey)

    C-O-O-L
    What's that spell?
    C-O-O-L

    I might dine in San Francisco
    Dance all night in Rome
    I go any freakin' place I want to
    And my Lear jet brings me home
    I got ladies by the dozens
    I got money by the ton
    Just ain't nobody better
    Heaven knows that I'm the one

    And it's all because of something
    That I didn't learn in school
    I'm just cool (cool)
    Cool
    Honey, baby, can't you see?
    Girl, I'm so cool (cool)
    Cool
    Ain't nobody bad like me

    Sing it, baby
    C-O-O-L
    What's that spell?
    C-O-O-L
    That spell cool (cool)
    Cool, she give me sex (cool)
    Ooh, ooh (cool)
    Cool (cool)
    Cool

    What time is it?
    Cool

    Listen babe, it takes a lot of lovin'
    And a little money to be a friend of mine
    But baby, if you know how to shake that thing
    I'll try to squeeze a little time
    'Cause I make love, love every mornin'
    To who's ever by my side
    You might say that I'm a nymphomaniac
    But it keeps me satisfied

    When I look into the mirror
    It just tells me something I already know
    I'm so cool (cool)
    Oh, oh
    Honey, baby, can't you see?
    Girl, I'm so cool (cool)
    Cool
    Ain't nobody bad like me
    Sing it
    C-O-O-L
    What's that spell?
    C-O-O-L
    What time is it?
    Four (cool)
    I'm so cool (cool)
    Cool (cool)
    Girl, I'm so cool (cool)
    Band

    C-O-O-L
    C-O-O-L

    Cool, that's right
    I'm cooler than Santa Claus, baby
    Oh, mm-hmm, ain't nobody bad like me
    Somebody pinch me
    I must be dreamin'
    I know that's right, honey
    I said ain't nobody bad like me
    What time is it?
    Is it time to get my hair done yet?
    I said, what time is it?
    Time to just walk and shake my head
    I'm cool 'til I'm dead
    Enough has been said
    Come on, baby, let's go to bed
    Everybody
    Walk, shake my head
    Cool 'til I'm dead
    Enough has been said
    Let's go to bed

    When I look into the mirror
    It just tells me something I already know
    I'm so cool (cool)
    Ain't nobody bad like me
    Oh, I'm so cool (cool)
    I said, ain't nobody bad like me
    All together now
    C-O-O-L
    What's that spell?
    C-O-O-L
