Cool Under Heat by The Clash Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Rebels on the corner
Rebels to the core
Got a million dollar question
What is living for?
Hey! Man can scratch a living
In a fat man's city class
The teacher is survival
But soon the present will be the past
[Chorus]
So
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
[Verse 2]
When you're rocking down
On a cold hard night
Pitiless eyes of the city-less souls
Narrow in the lights
Sorrow upon sorrow
Go ganging up in your head
You can leave it till tomorrow
If you can balance on the edge
[Chorus 2]
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
[Verse 3]
When the baby and you got to fight
Go cool your love in the rain
When the match refuses to strike
You may show that you really are in pain
I'm giving you a warning
Gonna burn those blue suede shoes
Swagger in the morning
Prints up front page news
[Chorus 3]
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
Rebels on the corner
Rebels to the core
Got a million dollar question
What is living for?
Hey! Man can scratch a living
In a fat man's city class
The teacher is survival
But soon the present will be the past
[Chorus]
So
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
[Verse 2]
When you're rocking down
On a cold hard night
Pitiless eyes of the city-less souls
Narrow in the lights
Sorrow upon sorrow
Go ganging up in your head
You can leave it till tomorrow
If you can balance on the edge
[Chorus 2]
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
[Verse 3]
When the baby and you got to fight
Go cool your love in the rain
When the match refuses to strike
You may show that you really are in pain
I'm giving you a warning
Gonna burn those blue suede shoes
Swagger in the morning
Prints up front page news
[Chorus 3]
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool under heat
Be cool on the street
Be cool under heat
