[Verse 1]
If there's one rule to this game, everybody's gonna name it
Be cool
If you're worried or uncertain, if your feelings are hurtin'
You're a fool if you can't keep cool

[Chorus 1]
Charm 'em, don't alarm 'em, keep things light
Keep your worries out of sight
And play it cool, pay it cool
Fifty-fifty fire and ice

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus 2]
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

[Verse 3]
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
[Bridge]
Be cool fool, be cool
(Lots of other fish in the sea)

[Chorus]
Play it cool, play it cool
Fifty-fifty fire and ice

[Verse 4]
So if there's one rule to this game
Everybody's gonna name it
Be cool
If you're worried or uncertain, if your feelings are hurtin'
You're a fool if you can't keep cool

[Chorus]
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
