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!
