Lyrics: Ben Folds Five. There's Always Someone Cooler Than You.
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 that's hard to believe
But there are people you meet
They're into something
That is to 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 ma 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
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-washed pants
When you don't care
Then you've got nothing to lose
And I won't hesitate
'Cause every moment
Life is slipping away
S'okay
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
Oh, there's always someone
Cooler than...
Life is wonderful
Life is beautiful
We're all children of
One big universe
So you don't have to be
A chump
And you know
(You know)
That I won't
(I won't)
Hesitate
(Hesitate)
'Cause every moment
Life is slipping away
(Away)
It's okay
(It's okay)
Make me feel tiny
If it makes you feel tall
Oh, 'cause 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
Nerds go wild...
No matter what you might do
There's always someone out there
Cooler than you
I know that's hard to believe
But there are people you meet
They're into something
That is to 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 ma 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
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

Or buy some acid-washed pants
When you don't care

And I won't hesitate
'Cause every moment

Make me feel tiny
If it makes you feel tall
But there's always someone
Cooler than you

But you won't be it 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...

Because there's always someone
Cooler than you
Cooler than you
Nerds go wild...
