[Verse 1]
Banging on my tambourine, I didn't think I'd make a scene
Till everyone joined in the chase
I never meant to make you cry, my head was floating in the sky
And nothing looked to be out of place

[Pre-Chorus]
I got my head like a cello, melancholy bows
If it goes, keep it mellow, baby
Or should I pay attention to the alarm?
The sirens going off in a police car

[Chorus]
And I forget, I forget
To be cool, cool, cool
I try my best to not get arrested
By you, you, you

[Verse 2]
I thought that I could plinky-plonk along the piano all I want
I didn't think you'd hear a wrong note
I'm like a pencil, old and blunt and writing in a bolder font
And I'm steady losing your vote

[Chorus]
And I forget, I forget
To be cool, cool, cool
I try my best to not get arrested
By you, you, you
[Pre-Chorus]
I got my head like a cello, melancholy bows
If it goes, keep it mellow, baby
Or should I pay attention to the alarm?
The sirens going off in a police car

[Chorus]
And I forget, I forget
To be cool, cool, cool
I try my best to not get arrested
By you, you, you
I forget, I forget
To be cool, cool, cool
I try my best to not get arrested
By you, you, you, you
And I forget, I forget (You)
To be cool, cool, cool (You)
I try my best to not get arrested (You)
By you, you, oh
