For a life where you’re the cream and they’re the crop
Where you can come out on top
And you won’t be a flop
But you gotta stop.
Because you’re uncool.
It’s when you give your years to a place
But then they run out of space
And they say to your face
That you’re waste
And we don’t want you
Because you’re uncool.
And you watched him in defeat
Your hero had been beat
The man who taught you not to lie, steal, and cheat
Knocked around and kicked to the street
But you can’t help because you’re too weak
And of course, you’re uncool.
And you try
You try to forget what they said
And forget what they did
Forget the names
Forget the games
But they’re stuck in your head
Like the earth holds the dead
When we fall, it’s their voice we hear.
If we stumble, it’s their laughter we fear.
No matter how far we get, they’re always near.
We can’t seem to persevere
Through being uncool.
Cuz it’s who I am.
