Pete Rock [Peter Phillips] The Bronx, NY, U.S. 🇺🇸
[Pete Rock, C.L. Smooth - Cool & Calm lyrics]
Cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm
Yo, what the heck? I demand respect
Girls pucker for a kiss and I give 'em a peck
On the cheek, so to speak
would never slob a freak
Like a movie of the week
My Timberlands don't leak
A trendsetter, and no one could do it better
Hot like summer and cold winter weather
I rob the rich just to give to the poor
Like Robin Hood, for the '91 tour
Many try to copy everything I do
You only got one brain while I got two
You say, "How'd he get two? Man, yo
That's dumb"
I got my two the samе way you got your one
Is Sonny Boy riffin'? Yo, shut your lip and
Listen to the night cap of rap on a mission
Pеte Rock's beats are like franks
So I took 'em and just like Ball Parks
They plump when you cook 'em
Clear the sector for the midnight wrecka
As I carve a rapper on my new Black & Decker
So don't leave yet
I'm gonna drop another bomb
But still, CL remains and calm
Cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm
Cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm
I hate a no fro witch
That got a crab-like itch
Just a girl I can knock
From the back and switch
Not been around for years like
Peanut butter and jelly
But custom made like a tire from Pirelli
Love all the cuties with the big
Round booties but if they pass gas
I cross my fingers 'cause your cooties
I can't stand a brother clockin' my spot
When I was young I used to
Always play Doctor a lot
Scopin' all the trim, fat, plump or slim
And fill 'em to the rim like the coffee brim
I'm smooth, solo
While you're small like Toto
Like the Wizard of Oz and, um
Bitin' is a no no
To me, the capital C you can't be
The chairman of the board so
I snatched the re
And you get nathan, snackin' on Wheat Thins
While I rap soon as the song begins
The one, the only, never smokin' any stogie
Funny like Yogi, and in golf I hit a bogey
There's only one God quoted in Psalm
And when I pray, I remain cool and calm
Cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm
Cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm
("He keeps his cool", "He keeps his cool")
("He keep, he keep, he keep, he
He keeps his cool")
("He keeps his cool", "He keeps his cool")
("He, he, he keeps his cool")
People always say, "Yo Smooth
Don't forget me"
Like I'ma break camp and move to Hawaii
I'm not going anywhere, you louse
I'm still living in town
I just moved to a bigger house
"But don't forget where you came from, " man
You're dumb 'Cause I could never diss my
People in the slum
You ring my bell enough, there's your proof
Even the professor in the DJ booth
Pete Rock, comin' from a middle class family
Not saying we're better, but yo
Understand me
You could rise, just use your head
Just like you wouldn't wear a
Pair of shoes to bed
Yes, learn your culture, get your diploma
Instead of getting crazy girls
Pregnant on your sofa
If I wasn't on wax I'd probably be
The next medical doctor or Malcolm X
Yo, I've been down in the dumps
Took my lumps
But as I grew older I avoided the chumps
And listened to my dad as he read the Qu'ran
With advice, "Corey, stay cool and calm"
Cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm
Cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm
Cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm cool, calm
Stay cool, stay calm stay cool, stay
Calm stay cool, stay calm cool, calm
