[Verse 1]
She sees them walking in a straight line
That's not really her style
They all got the same heartbeat
But hers is falling behind
Nothing in this world could ever bring them down
Yeah, they're invincible but she's just in the background

[Pre-Chorus]
And she says

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
And he says
[Chorus]
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

[Instrumental]

[Pre-Chorus]
And they said

[Chorus]
I wish that I could be like the cool kids
'Cause all the cool kids, they seem..
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
