Lyrics

Staring at a cigarette
I tried to quit, but haven't yet
In the moonlight, in a freezing house
Put on the record you've been all about
Ah na na naaaaaa, it's all I wanna be
I've been acting a fool
I've been feeling like good times just don't last
Got me screaming out, "Ooh ooh, look at me now"
Ah na na naaaaaa, all I wanna be
Is to be cool like James Dean
I'm not dumb, but I've wasted time
A hundred projects; none of them were mine
Suitcase half unpacked
The Internet won't ever love you back
Ah na na naaaaaa, it's all I wanna be
I've been acting a fool
I've been feeling like good times just don't last
Got me screaming out, "Ooh ooh, look at me now"
Ah na na naaaaaa, all I wanna be
Is to be cool like James Dean
Ah na na naaaaaa, it's all I wanna be
I've been acting a fool
I've been feeling like good times just don't last
Got me screaming out, "Ooh ooh, look at me now"
Ah na na naaaaaa, all I wanna be
Is to be cool like James Dean
