She sees them walkin' in a straight line, that's not really her style
And they all got the same heartbeat, but hers is fallin' behind
And nothin' in this world could ever bring them down
Yeah, they're invincible, and she 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
Like the cool kids
Like the cool kids
He sees them talkin' with a big smile, but they haven't got a clue
Yeah, they're livin' the good life, can't see what he is goin' through
They're drivin' fast cars, but they don't know where they're goin'
In the fast lane, livin' life without knowin'
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
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
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
