Cool Down
Lyrics: Rob Allen and Nick Selchow
Music: Nick Selchow
Cool Down is another marriage of Nick’s melody, chords and song structure with lyrics from Rob.
The words are thinly disguised commentary on the political polarization—Red and Blue—a that seems so prevalent in modern times.
Blue loss, come my way
Cool frost, where I lay
Lost wind, feel it comin
Turn a shoulder, a storm to summon
Upon, ahh, One mourning day
Red seize, come to fall
Warm breeze, caught us all
Hot talk, pay attention
Turn another, a lost intention
Upon, could be another mourning day
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, cool on down
Cool down, just cool on down
Cool down, just cool on down
Cool down, just cool on down
White hall, bought for you
They all thought so too, if we
Move now, it can all come down, and
Hey, there’s a cool wind comin’ round
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
Cool down, why don’t you just cool down
