| She sees them walking in a straight line | 
| That’s not really her style | 
| And they all got the same heartbeat | 
| But hers is falling behind | 
| Nothing in this world could | 
| Ever bring them down | 
| Yeah, they’re invincible | 
| And she’s just in the background | 
| And she says | 
| I wish that I could be like the cool kids | 
| Cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in | 
| (I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids) | 
| He sees them talking with a big smile | 
| But they haven’t got a clue | 
| Yeah, they’re living the good life | 
| Can’t see what he is going through | 
| They’re driving fast cars | 
| But they don’t know where they’re going | 
| In the fast lane | 
| Living life without knowing | 
| And he says | 
| I wish that I could be like the cool kids | 
| Cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in | 
| (I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids) | 
| I wish that I could be like the cool kids | 
| Cause all the cool kids, they seem to get it | 
| (I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids) | 
| And they said | 
| I wish that I could be like the cool kids | 
| Cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in | 
| I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids | 
| I wish that I could be like the cool kids | 
| Cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in | 
| (I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids) | 
| I wish that I could be like the cool kids | 
| Cause all the cool kids, they seem to get it | 
| (I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids) | 
| Like the cool kids |
