When it gets to be all too much
You gotta cool down, cool down, cool down
When you think you're losing touch
You gotta cool down, cool down, cool down
When you think you're gonna blow your top
Hey, cool down
When it feels like the heat won't stop
Yeah, cool down
When all your fears come a crop
Yeah, cool down
You gotta cool down
Be an ice man
When you find yourself pushed you aside
You gotta cool down, cool down, cool down
When all your fucking rights are denied
You gotta cool down, cool down, cool down
When an asshole grabs your subway seat
Hey, cool down
When you feel so down and beat
Yeah, cool down
You gotta cool down
Be an ice man
Be cool baby, don't you lose it
Be cool baby, yeah, just defuse it
When your life ain't no more fun
You gotta cool down, cool down, cool down
When it seems all the bad guys have won
You gotta cool down, cool down
When you think you are at the end
Hey, cool down
You have a chance to transcend
Yeah, cool down
You gotta cool down
Be an ice man
