"Cool Kids" Lyrics:
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 and she's just in the background
And she says
I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz 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 cuz 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 cuz 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 cuz 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 cuz 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 cuz all the cool kids, they seem to get it
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids

This song has a great message for everyone. It's okay not to fit in. Find your passion and your voice. Just be yourself. I was awkward and shy when I was in high school. I joined clubs just to try and fit in. Most of the time I was very unhappy. Then I went to university, and I started to feel more confident. I completed my studies, found my soulmate, and got a job in my field. Meanwhile, I found out that some of the cool kids from high school got left behind. Some of them did drugs and couldn't find happiness. Trust me, your life will take a turn for the better if you just believe in yourself. Find a few good friends to help you get through the uncertainties of life.

Jesus Christ heals all wounds. Please pray and give your life to Jesus Christ and repent. Jesus Christ is kind, loving, forgiving, merciful, and understanding. You don’t have to if you don’t want to it’s your choice. If you do please pray he will always be open to hear your prayer. Luke 15:7 “I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.” May God bless God loves and I love you.

I'm 72 and have very clear memories of the "cool kids". But time has a way of correcting things...the cool kids are now old, fat and bald. I'm sure they would enjoy dancing to this song...if only their arthritis would permit.

[@judenihal]

Keep in mind if they were unattractive, this song will not sell! 99 percent of the uncool kids are unattractive and not accepted into cool crowds, something this band does not have! Also, songs from the 60s and 70s are better than songs from today.

As the quiet, socially awkward kid in school, I relate to this song

[@donvreeland8844]

I'm 57, and still the pain, I didn't forget 5th grade. 'We' didn't care about the cool kids. I found out I'm deranged (e.g. PTSD), autistic. I spent about 20 years in colleges and universities including after graduation as a tutor (did fluid mechanics). No gal peer was EVER interested in me and had a 'get together' (?because I was a ?serious student? read: Super Nerd - and still am). I've good communication and emotional intimacy skills. I'm a 'Counseling Medic', too. I'm 57 (now 6/6/2020) and never 'lived' - it's from the complications of 'psychological violence' (common term 'bullied'). Never got married, childless, never had a career, never fit in to society. All my life was 'academia'. I've failed as a 'dear hunter' - even tho I'm on many personals sites as 'dutch8926' for DOZENS of years. I'm now dying in terminal phases. If you inflict 'psychological violence', you may never know how much life-changing harm is caused.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but here we go: I heard this song at 34 and it brought me to tears. I was mercilessly teased as an awkward, skinny, nerdy 80's kid. Big glasses, borderline mullet, severe acne, loved computers and role-playing games; I was a walking 80's nerd stereotype. It felt like everyone else "got it" except me. This song brought it all back in high contrast. Fast forward to adulthood and the playing field becomes leveled. I've reconnected with those cool kids- and not just the mean ones. The cool kids that made *everyone* feel comfortable. The ones that had a beautiful partner, that were quick to laugh, that put people around them at ease, that got good grades AND excelled in sports. I'm sure you can think of one or two. It turns out they had the same feelings. They went through the same ups and downs. Self-perception is a funny thing. Everyone goes through their own respective existential crisis. Everyone has self-doubts. It gets better. This will sound hokey, but it's all true: Appreciate your friends. Focus on what makes you happy. Tune out the noise. Put yourself into work that has meaning and a family that loves you for you. If it seems impossible keep looking, because it is out there. Love yourself. You will get there.

[@MattsARocknRolla]

I was never picked on…I had friends in every clique. I just never felt I belonged to one of them. You’re right about cutting out the noise. If I could tell my younger self one thing, it’d be ghost and focus on self betterment. Instead of trying to find validation from others find it within

[@colleen4ever]

And keep telling yourself that the "cool kids" are probably divorced or single mothers trying to raise kids by themselves, or they have STD's or have lousy jobs cause they never paid attention in school! The best revenge is to have the better life.
