When I was in middle school, I had a group of friends.
We wore jean jackets and sunglasses and we listened to Duran Duran.
There were 6 of us so when we played it didn't add up you see.
Everybody had a Duran Duran boyfriend but me.
I wasn't dating Nick Rhodes, I wasn't dating Rodger Tyler,
I wasn't dating John Tyler I wasn't dating Andy Tyler,
I wasn't dating Simon Le Bon.
I was sitting by myself with my collar up,
A tear in my eye and an aching in my heart.
And my converse on.
My converse on.
My glow- in- the- dark with pink fat laces, zebra- striped converse on.
If you are a kid and no-one will play with you,
Stick it out, stay tough and you'll turn out super cool.
When I go to a party, everybody looks the same,
I'm the one they recognise, everybody knows my name.
Everybody knows my name.
Be yourself, don't do, what everybody, tells you to do.
Be yourself, be proud of yourself, you'll be cool.
Supercool!
Don't be a fool.
