Joe Strummer - Cool Under Heat lyrics

[Verse 1] Rebels on the corner Rebels to the core Got a million dollar question What is living for? Hey! Man can scratch a living In a fat man's city cla** The teacher is survival But soon the present will be the past [Chorus] So! Be cool under heat Be cool under heat Be cool on the street Be cool under heat [Verse 2] When you're rocking down On a cold hard night Pitiless eyes of the city-less souls Narrow in the lights Sorrow upon sorrow Go ganging up in your head You can leave it till tomorrow If you can balance on the edge [Chorus] [Verse 3] When the baby and you got to fight Go cool your love in the rain When the match refuses to strike Show that you really are in pain I'm giving you a warning Gonna burn those blue suede shoes Swagger in the morning Prints up front page news [Chorus]
