Standard (EADGBE)
Verse 1
Smile, like you've got nothing to prove,
No matter what you might do;
There's always someone out there cooler than you.
Verse 2
I know that's hard to believe, but there are people you meet,
They're into something that is too big to be,
Ex-pressed, through their clothes,
And they'll put up with all the poses you'll throw,
And you, won't even know;
Verse 3
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 in there to see,
Be-neath, the ve-neer,
Not every-body made the list this year; have a beer.
Chorus 1
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 here for long,
Oh, there's always someone cooler than you.
Yeah, there's always someone cooler than you.
Verse 4
Now that I've got the disease, in a way I'm relieved,
'Cos I don't have to stress a-bout it like you do.
I might just get up and dance, or buy some Acid-wash pants,
When you don't care, then you got nothing to lose.
And I won't, hesi-tate,
'Cos every moment life is slipping away; it's ok.
Chorus 2
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 here for long,
Oh, there's always someone cooler than you.
Yeah, there's always someone cooler than you.
Oh, there's always someone cooler than...
Bridge 1
Life is wonderful, life is beautiful,
We're all children of, one big Universe,
So you don't have to be a chump.
Interlude
Verse 5
And you know, (you know), that I won't, (I won't),
Hesi-tate, (hesitate),
'Cos every moment life is slipping away, (away),
It's o-k, (it's ok).
Chorus 3
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 here 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.
Coda
Cooler than yo-ou, (boy),
Cooler than yo-ou, (girl).
Cooler than yo-ou, (Sir),
Cooler than yo-ou, (my lady).
Oh.
Nerds go wild,
Yeah, yeah.
