I'm still sitting on the couch

Watching soaps on the tv why am I feeling so weak

Smoking some cigarettes, sipping some drinks

I don't know how deep I can sink

You're somewhere in my damn mind

But I can't be by your side

Cause you're cool

And I'll always be the one who gets fooled

I don't know what it's like to be cool

I just know what it's like to play the fool

The fool

I've been trying to find a way

To get your affection, but I'm so scared of rejection

Bought a new tv, 4k flatscreen

It's like you're right here with me

You're somewhere so far away

You don't know a thing about me

Cause you're cool

And I'll always be the one who gets fooled

I don't know what it's like to be cool

I just know what it's like to play the fool

The fool

I don't know what it's like to be cool

I just know what it's like to play the fool

I wrote you 10 times per day

I even flew to LA

I sold my tv away

Looking back I never had much fun

But look what I've become

I never thought I'd be the one

But now we're sitting here in the sun

Now I know what it's like to be cool

And you won't see me playing the fool
