[Verse 1]

I can't make up my mind

What the possibilities are, fascinating or boring?

Is this a cool world or what?

I'm in a brown study, I'm in a blue funk

I'm in a purple haze, but they fade into a cool world

[Chorus]

(Cool world) Is this a cool world?

(Cool world) Is this a cool world?

(Cool world) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

(Cool world) Is this a cool world or what?

[Verse 2]

I had a broken-down heart

I had a settled-down soul

I had a head full of doubt

'Till I heard about the cool world

Now I'm laughing at my sleep

I'm talking through my head

I'm whistling past the graveyard

Pretending it's a cool world

[Chorus]

(Cool world) Is this a cool world?

(Cool world) Is this a cool world?

(Cool world) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

(Cool world) Is this a cool world or what?

[Interlude]

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Ooh

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Wow

[Verse 3]

I want some French sunglasses

Call waiting on my phone

I want a house for my mother, just like Moses Malone

I keep my options open, my possibilities pure

I keep my eye to the main chance

I keep my place in this cool world

[Chorus]

(Cool world) Is this a cool world?

(Cool world) Is this a cool world?

(Cool world) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

(Cool world)

(Cool world) Is this a cool world?

(Cool world) Is this a cool world?

(Cool world) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

(Cool world) Is this a cool world or what?

[Outro]

(Cool world)

(Cool world)

(Cool world) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

(Cool world)

(Cool world)

(Cool world)

(Cool world) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
