Now I like takin' off   Don't like burnin' out   Every time you turn it on    Makes me want to shout   We keep getting hotter   Movin' way too fast    If we don't slow this fire down   We're not gonna last      Cool the engines   Red line's gettin' near   Cool the engines   Better take it out of gear      I'm no fool   I'm gonna keep it cool   and take it day by day   We won't know where we might go   'Till we take it all the way      Take me for a ride   Take me all the way   Take me where I've never been    Someplace I can stay   Don't get yourself too hot   Don't get yourself too high   If we don't take it easy now    We can kiss it all goodbye       Cool the engines   Slow this rocket down   Cool the engines   Why don't ya take a look around       I'm no fool, gonna keep it cool   Take it day by day   We won't know where we might go   'Till we take it all the way       Cool the engines   Cool the engines   Goin' over the line   Goin' off the dial   Runnin' out of time   And it's gettin' wild       Got flashin' lights    Goin' 'round and 'round   Until we get it right   Better cool it down   Better cool it down.       Cool the engines.       And now we're on our way   No need to hurry just to get from day to day    And I, oooh, I know   We don't have to run that hard to get where we can go.       Cool the engines.       Cool the engines down.       Cool the engines.       Cool the engines down.
