Like you’ve got nothing to prove

No matter what you might do

There’s always someone out there cooler than you

I know that’s hard to believe

But there are people you meet

They’re into something that is to big to be

Expressed

Through their clothes

And they’ll put up with all the poses you throw

And you won’t

Even know

That they’re not sizing you up

They know your mom fucked you up

Or maybe let you watch too much TV

But they’ll still look in your eyes

To find the human inside

You know there is always something in there to see

Beneath

The veneer

Not everyone made the list this year

Have a beer

Make me feel tiny if it makes you feel tall

But there’s always someone cooler than you

Yeah, you’re the shit

But you won’t be it for long

There’s always someone cooler than you

Yeah, there’s always someone cooler than you

Now that I’ve got the disease

In a way im relieved

Cause I don’t have to stress about it like you do

I might just get up and dance

Or buy some acid washed pants

If you don’t care

Then you got nothing to lose

And I won’t

Hesitate

Cause every moment is slipping away

It’s ok

Make me feel tiny if it makes you feel tall

But there’s always someone cooler than you

Yeah, you’re the shit

But you won’t be it for long

There’s always someone cooler than you

Yeah, there’s always someone cooler than you

Life is wonderful

Life is beautiful

We’re all children of

One big universe

So you don’t have to be

A chump

And you know

That I won’t hesitate

Cause every moment in life is slipping away

It’s ok

Make me feel tiny if it makes you feel tall

But there’s always someone cooler than you

Yeah, you’re the shit

But you won’t be it for long

There’s always someone cooler than you

Yeah, there’s always someone cooler than you

Cooler than you

Cooler than you

Cooler than you

So

Cooler than you
