Cooler Than Me
James flipped the switch on the radio sitting next to his beach chair to turn it on. Cooler Than Me by Mike Posner came blaring on. He glanced around and spotted The Jennifers walking in that motion around the pool. He closed his eyes and let the world fade in the song.
If I could write you a song to make you fall in love
I would already have you up under my arm
I used up all of my tricks, I hope that you like this
But you probably won't, you think you're cooler than me
James opened his eyes and watched as they swayed their arms and strutted around like models.
You got designer shades just to hide your face and
You wear 'em around like you're cooler than me
And you never say "hey" or remember my name
And it's probably 'cause you think you're cooler than me
He smirked at how the song just happened to be perfect as their theme song. You got your high brown shoes on your feet
And you wear 'em around like it ain't shit
But you don't know the way that you look
When your steps make that much noise
And that Mike dude was right. What the hell were those girls thinking, refusing my beauty? Those hot…popular….hot…girls? Shh, see I got you all figured out If I could write you a song to make you fall in love
You need every one's eyes just to feel seen
Behind your make up nobody knows who you even are
Who do you think that you are?
I would already have you up under my arm
I used up all of my tricks, I hope that you like this
But you probably won't, you think you're cooler than me
Shit, it's been like 5 minutes and they still haven't gotten around the pool…
You got designer shades just to hide your face and You got your high brow switch in your walk
You wear 'em around like you're cooler than me
And you never say "hey" or remember my name
And it's probably 'cause you think you're cooler than me
And you don't even look when you pass by
But you don't know the way that you look
When your steps make that much noise
And what about all those times when the guys and I have been rejected and insulted?
Shh, see I got you all figured out If I could write you a song to make you fall in love You got designer shades just to hide your face and Now don't you dare act like you know don't know
You need every one's eyes just to feel seen
Behind your make up nobody knows who you even are
Who do you think that you are?
I would already have you up under my arm
I used up all of my tricks, I hope that you like this
But you probably won't, you think you're cooler than me
You wear 'em around like you're cooler than me
And you never say "hey" or remember my name
And it's probably 'cause you think you're cooler than me
Know what's up? 'Cause your nose is up
I'm approaching up, pshh, yup
Like I can't give you winter in the summer
A summer in the winter, Miami in December
I'm going to give 'em a piece of my mind. And maybe my phone number. Trying to look bored in them Diors, she probably is
Was acting shallow 'til she found out how deep that my pockets is
Mrs. pre-Madonna, this is your reminder
That I think you fine, but I'm finer
He walked over to where they were standing and prepared to talk. 'Cause it sure seems
('Cause it sure seems)
You got no doubt
(That you got no doubt)
But we all see
(We all see)
You got your head in the clouds
(Clouds)
Even in the distance you could hear the yell of a teenage boy being pushed into a certain Hollywood pool. If I could write you a song to make you fall in love You got designer shades just to hide your face and
I would already have you up under my arm
(Under my arm)
I used up all of my tricks, I hope that you like this
But you probably won't, you think you're cooler than me
You wear 'em around like you're cooler than me
And you never say "hey" or remember my name
And it's probably 'cause you think you're cooler than me
After a few seconds of reflecting, one word came into James mind.
"Fuck."
