James Dean

[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

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

[Chorus]

I'm no James Dean,

Heartthrob daydream

Bad hair, black jeans,

Not cool suits me

Girls won't date me,

Guys all hate me

Guess that must mean,

I'm no James Dean

[Verse 2]

I'd got into Nirvana,

and smoking marijuana,

My first year in school

But you don't really wanna,

Get busted by your momma

If you want to stay cool

She burst into the party,

Hadn't hardly started,

She was looking crazed

She took away my joint said,

"Nick I'm disappointed,

That's not how you were raised!"

[Chorus]

Cause I'm no James Dean,

Heartthrob daydream

Bad hair, black jeans,

Not cool suits me

Girls won't date me,

Guys all hate me

Guess that must mean,

I'm no James Dean

[Bridge]

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 just what you're made of,

Yeah!

[Chorus]

I'm no James Dean,

Heartthrob daydream

Bad hair, black jeans,

I'm not cool, it suits me

Girls won't date me,

Guys all hate me

Guess that must mean,

I'm no James Dean

Cause I'm no James Dean,

Heartthrob daydream

Bad hair, black jeans,

Not cool suits me

Girls won't date me,

Guys all hate me

Guess that must mean,

I'm no James Dean

[Outro]

Yeah, Yeah

I'm no James Dean,

I'm no James Dean
