Hot Breakfast - We Are Not Cool lyrics

I’m hanging around, playing in my closet

Trying to find that perfect look

Something sleek and retro chic

A page outside the book

Look what I found, here’s my favorite t-shirt

When high school was my world

And suddenly I know I’m still that awkward teenage girl

Cause I am not cool, I am not cool

I am not cool, not like you

I am not cool, I am not cool

I am not cool, not like you

Look at us go – playing at a venue

On another Friday night

We’re right in tune, we make ‘em swoon

We’re feeling good and tight

But what do we know – how we gonna deal

When we play our final song

Cause when it’s time to mingle, we know we don’t belong

Cause we are not cool, we are not cool

We are not cool, not like you

We are not cool, we are not cool

We are not cool, just a couple of fools

I know it’s just malarkey – this teenage hierarchy

But how old do I have to be before it doesn't matter to me

So what do you say, are we gonna make it

Did you figure out the score

Can we just enjoy the party

Without one eye on the door

Cause either way, when the night is over

You’ll be back at seventeen

Hiding from rejection, longing for protection

Knowing well that this is not your scene

Cause I am not cool, I am not cool

I am not cool, not like you

We are not cool, we are not cool

We are not cool, not like you

I am not cool, I am not cool

I am not cool, you know it's true

We are not cool, we are not cool

We are not cool, just a couple of tools

I know the reality – the world is run by geeks like me

But I would trade it all away to feel cool for just one day

Just one day - hey!
