Right hat, right shoes
Right down to the attitude
Don't act no fool
Just the right amount of rude
Sink shots, smoke pot
Speak up and fight a lot
Funny guy and you don't try
Overheard that girl call you hot
You're the life of the party it's true
Step into the place and the people say woohoo
Drink from your cup and I should be all set
Am I cool yet, am I cool yet?
Bad breath, facial tic
Rumors of a tiny dick
No job, I'm a slob
Kinda ugly and kinda T H I C C
Mama's boy, corduroys
Social graces are not deployed
Couldn't be more different
Teach me how to be a homeboy
You're the life of the party it's true
Step into the place and the people say woohoo
Drink from your cup and I should be all set
Am I cool yet, am I cool yet?
I just want to be smooth
Just like you
I just want to groove
You're the life of the party it's true
Step into the place and the people say woohoo
Drink from your cup and I should be all set
Am I cool yet, am I cool yet?

I alternate in between wanting to set you free and a fear that you'll really leave,
You're the only one that's looked at every single little piece of me and said that you like what you see,
Now you only visit in a whiff of your perfume or a midnight reverie,
I still have your favorite sweater, you were always a trendsetter, that was all I could bear to keep
Hey
I know it's what you'd want
You were always looking out for me
But the thought of someone else
Makes it hard to breathe
With my head in my hands
And an ocean in my eyes
I scream into the wind
I apologize, apologize
Red hair, sapphire eyes, I bet you'd think she's cute,
Babe, I promise that I tried, I even wore my best suit.
Everything was going well, for once I had escaped this hell with a stranger and a champagne flute,
That spell was broken with a kiss, that sweet illusion was dismissed, there is no substitute.
Hey
I know it's what you'd want
You were always looking out for me
But the thought of someone else
Makes it hard to breathe
With my head in my hands
And an ocean in my eyes
I scream into the wind
I apologize, apologize

My Best Life

Hey
This is not my
Not my best life
Not my best life
Time is a thief and villain
Who pretends he's a friend
With a favor to lend
I always empty my pockets
A little too often
When he comes round the bend
Time is a string of disappointments
Like leaves from the vine
Falling so slow
I want to find the statue
That lives within the stone
Don't know where the chisel goes
Hey
This is not my
Not my best life
Not my best life
The good lies
They don't satisfy
This is not my
Not my best life
Smiles immortal in a picture
Of a man and his son
I was so young
Grey advances on the temple
In my hair and in my bones
Don't remember getting old
Time is a raindrop in the ocean
Expressions of a storm
Wash away the form
I have to find the statue
Even if it kills me
I have to set him free
Hey
This is not my
Not my best life
Not my best life
The good lies
They don't satisfy
This is not my
Not my best life
