this is it,
my one shot at the big time,
better make it count,
stand up and be heard,
cause i know
if the radio plays this song
all the kids will buy it
and make me a wealthy man
and i won't be cool anymore

i've been doing this for the last twelve years,
through all the times when no one cared
now everybody wants a piece of me,
sign on the dotted line,
make what's theirs is mine
it'll make you rich you'll see
and there's a million more just like me

i don't know what's cool anymore,
who am i to say
if you can't make that decision on your own
then you're pretty f___ing dumb anyway

generation, no motivation, instantaneous gratification,
remote controls and mtv,
a generation that hypnotized
lulled by repetitious lies.
spoonfed all of their corporate pro-gramming

well, i'm not a one hit wonder looking to get rich
i'm not trying to sell out my songs
i was here before they exploited our scene
and i'll be here when they're dead and f___ing gone

i don't know what's cool anymore,
and i don't care what's cool anymore
and i don't know what's cool anymore
and i don't think i don't f___ing care!
