Could it be i'm alive after all this?
Picking pennies off the floor with my cold cold hands
Look at me, no hands aint it cool yeah
Look at her falling out of a taxi cab

If you really want some understanding
You will find it can be quite frustrating
If you really want to understand it
You will learn it can be quite demanding

You and me trying hard to remember
How we ever started out with our sights so high
Looking down, seeing your yellow fingers
and if you don't understand then at least ask why

If you really want some understanding
You will learn it can be quite frustrating
If you really want to understand it
You will learn it can be quite demanding

Could it be i'm alive after all this?
Picking pennies off the floor with my cold hands
Look at me, no hands aint it cool yeah
Look at her falling out of a taxi cab

If you really want some understanding
You will learn it can be quite frustrating
If you really want to understand it
You should talk to mr understanding

What did you learn today?
I learnt nothing!
What did you do today?
I did nothing!
What did you learn in school?
I didn't go!
Why didn't you go to school?
I don't know!

It's cool, to know nothing
It's cool, to know nothing

Television 's on the blink,
There's nothing on it,
I really wanna really be cool
With words on it,
What do you want for tea?
I want crisps!
Why don't you join for tea?
I just did it!

It's cool, to know nothing
It's cool, to know nothing

Take a look, take a look, take look
At the kids on the street,
No they never miss a beat, no they never miss a beat,
Never miss a beat, never miss a beat, beat
Beat, beat
Take a look at the kids on the street, no they never miss a beat,
No they never miss a beat, never miss a beat
Never miss a, never miss a beat, never miss a beat

Here comes the refferee,
Well that's last year!
Best bit of the day,
Now that's needed
Why don't you run away?
Are you kidding!
What is the golden rule?
You said nothing

It's cool, to know nothing
It's cool, to know nothing

Take a look, take a look, take look
At the kids on the street,
No they never miss a beat, no they never miss a beat,
Never miss a beat, never miss a beat, beat
Beat, beat
Take a look at the kids on the street, no they never miss a beat,
No they never miss a beat, never miss a beat
Never miss a, never miss a beat, never miss a beat

Take a look, take a look, take look
At the kids on the street,
No they never miss a beat, no they never miss a beat,
Never miss a beat, never miss a beat, beat
Beat, beat
Take a look at the kids on the street, no they never miss a beat,
No they never miss a beat, never miss a beat
Never miss a, never miss a beat, never miss a beat

I dreamed I was missing, you were so scared
But no one would listen, 'cause no one else cared
After my dreaming, I woke with this fear
What am I leaving when I'm done here?

So if you're asking me, I want you to know

When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest

Leave out all the rest, don't be afraid
I've taken my beating, I've shared what I made
I'm strong on the surface, not all the way through
I've never been perfect, but neither have you

So if you're asking me, I want you to know

When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

I can't be who you are
