Smile like you've got nothing to prove
No matter what you might do
There's always someone out there cooler than you

I know it's hard to believe
But there are people you meet
They're into something that is too big to be
Expressed through their clothes
And they'll put up with all the poses you throw

And you won't even know 
That they're not sizing you up
They know your mom fucked you up
Or maybe let you watch too much TV
But they'll still look in your eyes
To find the human inside

You know there's always something to see
Beneath the veneer
Not everybody made the list this year
Have a beer

Make me feel tiny if it makes you feel tall

But there's always someone cooler than you
Yeah, you're the shit but you won't be it for long
Oh, there's always someone cooler than you
Yeah, there's always someone cooler than you

Now that I've got the disease
In a way I'm relieved
'cause I don't have to stress about it like you do.
I might just get up and dance
Or buy some acid wash pants
When you don't care then
You've got nothing to loose

And I won't hesitate
Because every moment life it slipping away
It's okay

Make me feel tiny if it make you feel tall
But there's always someone cooler than you
Yeah, you're the shit but you won't be it for long
But there's always someone cooler than you
Oh, there's always someone cooler than you
Yeah,there's always someone cooler than you
There's always someone cooler than

Life is wonderful
Oh, life is beautiful
We're all children of one big universe
So you don't have to be a chump

And you know that I won't hesitate
'cause every moment life is slipping away
It's okay

Make me feel tiny if it make you feel tall
Because there's always someone cooler than you
Yeah, you're the shit but you won't be it for long
But there's always someone cooler than you
Oh yeah, there's always someone cooler than you
Because there's always someone cooler than you

Cooler than you [Repeats]

Nerds go wild
