The Perls - Play Cool Lyrics

I don't care much for money
And I don't need the pain
One thing I've always remembered
Are the people who remember my name

It's only force of habit
It's all about the same
One thing I always come back to
Is the place that I've always been

One thing they don't tell you is it's gotta be bad

Don't play cool don't give em' your kicks
We were both losers and we both know this
You were sittin Shiva in a cocktail bar
I was doing things I never did before
You were on the mountain when I headed to the floor
Where were you in '94?

It's never been enough its never been alright
I'm empty endlessly
One moment I'm in the driveway
And then suddenly I'm fast asleep
And then the white light opens up my window
And it reaches into me
And it stirs up something, never nothing, here it comes and now I'm running till I stumble and bleed

Don't play cool don't give em' your kicks
We were so different and we both know this
You were sittin Shiva in a cocktail bar
I was doing things I never did before
You were on the mountain when I headed to the floor
Where were you in '94?
