Cool As It Gets

Black silk stockings ready for rockin’
That’s all your mama needs
They get close to dyin’, overboiledd and fryin’
You’re all she ever wanted to be
Gonna spread your wings and do wicked little things
Almost ready to fly
Into the night and take a careful bite
Of what is never foreseen

Mother tries buyin’ off the lord
Begging for guidance and your soul
But you got fire inside your brain
And that’s as cool as it gets

Every time she hears a knock it’s more than more enough
To feel paranoid again
Might be Frankie, maybe bad Johnny
Filling nails ready to sin
Give a little give, give a little take
Mama’s back on her knees
You’re so excited, illuminated and lighted
Up like a Christmas tree

Mother keeps tryin’ to inspire the Lord
Begging for guidance and your soul
But you got fire inside your brain
Yeah and that’s as cool as it gets

Ride from the slow, you’re ridin’ in the fastest lane
Ain’t no turnin’ back to where you’ve always been
Take my advice because all life’s just a lonely game
Just go ahead
Go ahead, tonight’s your night baby

Right from the start, you’re bangin’ for the fastest lane
Ain’t no turning ‘round to where you’ve always been
Take my advice that this life is nothing but a lonely game
Just go ahead
Go ahead, tonight’s your night baby

Right from the start you’re heading for the fastest lane
Ain’t no turning back to where you’ve always been

Cool as it gets
Cool as it gets
Cool as it gets
Cool as it gets
Cool as it gets
Cool as it gets
