Cool It Now Lyrics

Everybody's saying silly things
Without knowing
That life brings a change
And they've been checking all the signs
(Checking all this time)
My friends say I'm love sick 'cause I

All I keep thinking about is her
In my arms
(Got to see what love is all about)
And I won't be the same
Until she is mine
And my friends keep telling me to

Cool it now
You've got to cool it now
Ooh, watch out
You're gonna lose control
Cool it now
You've got to slow it down
Slow it down
You're gonna fall in love

Every day I walk her home from school
And she tells me
How she really feels
And there's no doubt in my mind
That this girl is one of a kind, no

'Cause all I keep thinking about is her
In my arms
And I won't feel the same
Until she is mine
And my friends keep telling me to

Cool it now
You've got to cool it now
Ooh, watch out
You're gonna lose control
Cool it now
You better slow it down
Slow it down
You're gonna fall in love

Cool it now
You've got to cool it now
Ooh, watch out
You're gonna lose control
Cool it now
You got to slow it down
Slow it down
You're gonna fall in love

All I keep thinking about is her
In my arms
(Got to see what love is all about)
And I'll never be the same
Until you are mine
And my friends keep telling me

When you got a girl who takes her time
You must slow down the pace
You can't mess with her mind
If she feels the same she'll letcha know
Just prepare yourself or be ready to go
And I hope this message stays in your mind
'Cause you almost lost a girl who's right on time
There's one more thing that you got to know
Just cool it down
Stay in control

Cool it now
You've got to cool it now
Ooh, watch out
You're gonna lose control
Cool it now
You better slow it down
Slow it down
'Cause you're gonna fall in love, baby

And all I keep thinking about is her
In my arms
And I'll never be the same
Until you are mine, oh
Listen to me
Let me tell you

Why you all coming down on me
Trying to tell my how my life is supposed to be
I know you're only trying
To help me out
Trying to show me what life is really about
But this time I'm gonna make it
On my own
So why don't you fellas just leave me alone
Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, and Mike
If I love the girl, who cares who you like

Cool it now
Ooh, watch out
Cool it now
Slow it down
Cool it now
Ooh, watch out
Cool it now
Slow it down

Cool it now
You've got to cool it now
Ooh, watch out
'Cause you're gonna lose control
Cool it now
You got to slow it down
Slow it down
You're gonna fall in love

Cool it now
Slow it down
You're gonna lose control
Cool it now
You got to slow it down
Slow it down
'Cause you're gonna fall in love

Cool it now
Slow it down
'Cause you're gonna lose control
Cool it now
You got to slow it down
Slow it down

Cool it now
Ooh, watch out
Cool it now
Slow it down

Cover art for Cool It Now lyrics by New Edition

Ricky is a troubled young African-American youth in the big city. He has been walking this girl back from school lately and has noticed that he has started to feel feelings of attraction towards the aforementioned black girl. Ricky confesses his feelings to his 4 closest friends, Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky and Mike, and they advise him of the attitude he should take when encountering a situation like this; to not get too attached to the young African-female, for the relationship may be none more than amicable at most. 7.8/10 Needs some work

My Interpretation

@CustomClass5 That's a very professorial analysis. Hard to argue with that.
