Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Imagine for a minute you get up in the morning
And get what you want
You look good in the mirror, your shirt is full of money
You're getting it on
[Verse 2]
Imagine being shallow, thinner than a shadow
Thicker than wood
Imagine for a minute the way that I'd be living
If only I could
[Verse 3]
I'm no James Dean
Heartthrob, daydream
Bad hair, black jeans
Not cool, suits me
[Verse 4]
Girls won't date me, guys all hate me
Guess that, must mean, I'm no, James Dean
James Dean
[Verse 5]
I got into Nirvana and smoking marijuana
My first year in school
But you don't really wanna get busted by your momma
If you wanna stay cool
[Verse 6]
She burst into the party, hadn't hardly started
She was looking crazed
She took away my joint, said Nick I'm disappointed
It's not how you were raised
[Verse 7]
Cause I'm no James Dean
Heartthrob, daydream
Bad hair, black jeans
Not cool, suits me
[Verse 8]
Girls won't date me, guys all hate me
Guess that, must mean, I'm no, James Dean
James Dean
[Verse 9]
I think we all grow up thinking life is gonna be like the movies
But enough's enough 'cause after all you gotta get used to losing
But then you stand up, shake it off
Show 'em all exactly what you're made of, yeah
[Verse 10]
I'm no James Dean
Heartthrob, daydream
Bad hair, black jeans
I'm not cool, it suits me
[Verse 11]
Girls won't date me, guys all hate me
Guess that, must mean, I'm no, James Dean
[Verse 12]
Cause I'm no James Dean
Heartthrob, daydream
Bad hair, black jeans
Not cool, suits me
[Verse 13]
Girls won't date me, guys all hate me
Guess that, must mean, I'm no, James Dean
I'm no James Dean
I'm no James Dean
