Cool Kids by Kalie Shorr Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got a checkered past to match my checkered Vans
I used to give a shit, now I don't give a damn
Love it, judge it, hate it, knock it, hey I understand
If you don't understand

[Pre-Chorus]
You don't get it, you don't have to
'Cause honestly I didn't really ask you
And I don't try to check the boxes that I don't fit into

[Chorus]
Ain't it cool, kids to not be cool kids
Pour out the kool-aid and just be human
Fly your middle finger to the way you should be blueprint, hey
We can wear our scars like diamonds in the dark
'Cause they make us who we are
Ain't it cool, kids
To not be cool kids

[Verse 2]
I got a tattoo on my arm that my mama hates
And I still wear my Billie Joe shirt from my Green Day phase
Love it, judge it, hate it, knock it, if it ain't your thing
It ain't no thing
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't get it, you don't have to
'Cause honestly I didn't really ask you
And I don't try to check the boxes that I don't fit into

[Chorus]
Ain't it cool, kids to not be cool kids
Pour out the kool-aid and just be human
Fly your middle finger to the way you should be blueprint, hey
We can wear our scars like diamonds in the dark
'Cause they make us who we are
Ain't it cool, kids
To not be cool kids

[Bridge]
I don't wanna be another wannabe
I'm gonna be a holographic new classic anomaly, anomaly
I don't wanna be another wannabe, wannabe-e-e

[Chorus]
Ain't it cool, kids to not be cool kids
Pour out the kool-aid and just be human
Fly your middle finger to the way you should be blueprint, hey
We can wear our scars like diamonds in the dark
'Cause they make us who we are
Ain't it cool, kids
To not be cool kids
