Something Cool

Something cool

Yes 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

Know

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 most you 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

Keep my furs for the cold

A cigarette or I don't smoke them as a rule

But I'll have one it might be fun with something

Bet you wouldn't imagine that I once had a house

With so many rooms you couldn't count them all

Bet that you couldn't imagine I had fifteen different boys

Who would beg and beg to take me to a ball

That 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 cause the weather's so hot

And I'm feeling so bad you've got a date please wait I'm such a fool

He's just a guy who stopped to buy me something cool
