Shades Of Cool

My baby lives in shades of blue
Blue eyes and jazz and attitude
He lives in California too
He drives a Chevy Malibu

And when he calls, he calls for me, and not for you
He lives for love, he loves his drugs
He loves his baby too

But I can't fix him
Can't make him better
And I can't do nothing about
His strange weather

But you
Are unfixable
I can't break through your world
‘Cause you
Live in shades of cool
Your heart is unbreakable

My baby lives in shades of cool
Cool heart and hands and aptitude
He lives for love, for women too
I'm one of many; one is blue

And when he calls, he calls for me, and not for you
He prays for love, he prays for peace
And maybe someone new

But I can't help him
Can't make him better
And I can't do nothing about
His strange weather

'Cause you
Are unfixable
I can't break through your world
'Cause you
Live in shades of cool
Your heart is unbreakable

(Your hot, hot weather in the summer)
(Hot, hot, neglectful lover)
(Hot, hot weather in the summer)
(Hot, neglectful lover)
(You're crumbling, sadly)
(You're sadly crumbling)

'Cause you
Are unfixable
I can't break through your world
'Cause you
Live in shades of cool
Your heart is unbreakable
