Something Cool
Something cool I'd like to order something cool It's so warm here in town and this heat gets me down Yes, I'd like something cool My, it's nice to simply sit and rest awhile You know it's a shame I can't think of your name I remember your smile I don't ordinarily drink with strangers I guess I usually drink alone But you were so awfully nice to ask me And I'm so terribly far from home Like my dress I must confess it's very old But it's simple and neat, it's just right for this heat Save my furs for the cold A cigarette, no I don't smoke them as a rule But I'll have one, it might be fun with something cool I'd bet you wouldn't imagine that I once had a house With so many rooms you couldn't count them all I'll bet that you couldn't imagine I had fifteen different boys Who would beg and beg to take me to a ball Letras de canciones And I know you couldn't picture me The time I went to Paris in the fall And who would think the man that I loved Was quite so handsome and quite so tall Well, it's through, it's just a memory I had One I almost forgot since the weather's so hot And I'm feeling so bad about a date, oh wait, I'm such a fool He's just a guy who stopped to buy me something cool From Letras Mania
