Cool city lyrics

Artist  : Oingo boingo 
Song : Cool city
 

Icy steel shooting through concrete, cool city 
Mountains of glass reflect the sky 
Everybody feels real good in cool city 
Each day brings a new surprise 
Johnny came two-thousand miles to the cool city 
He came to see what makes things tick 
He cut his hair and bought new clothes in the
cool city 
Finally found his life`s ambition 

How to do nothing perfectly 
To do it with style so gracefully 
`Cause life is so delicious in Cool City 

Outside no one`s on the street 
Don`t stop or you`ll miss a beat 

Someone`s standing in a doorway -- cool city 
You open the door and check him out so casually 
The music`s blasting all night long in cool city 
They recognize his face, so it`s all right 
This one knew the right address 
He even knew someone in a band 
While the others wait all night standing there in

Cool city 

So hard to make the right friends 
You might have to sell some skin 
The nights go on forever 

The blacks they all hate the whites 
The whites think they`re tough, but they`re not,
cool city 
The boys go out with each other 
The girls who will be in movies 

If you`re high, you`re in the right place, cool
city 
Animals seek out their own kind 
Shake some hands and take a lunch in cool city 
Someone`s going to try and tempt you 
Listen to all the brilliant plans in the cool
city 
It`s all free now, but you`ll pay later with your
soul 
Pray to the the objects on the wall 
That you`ll stay young and never grow old 
So come on, the water`s fine 
Have a drink, snort a line 
`Cause the nights get very chilly here in cool
city
