I never really tried to be positive

I'm too damn busy being negative

So focused on what I get

I never understand what it means to live

You know we all love to just complain

But maybe we should try to rearrange

There's always someone who's got it worse than you

My life is so cool, my life is so cool

Oh yeah, from a different point of view

My life is so cool, my life is so cool

Oh yeah, from a different point of view

We're all so busy trying to get ahead

Got a pillow of fears when we go to bed

We're never satisfied

The grass is greener on the other side

So distracted with our jealousy

Forget it's in our hands to stop the agony

Will you ever be content on your side of the fence?

My life is so cool, my life is so cool

Oh yeah, from a different point of view

My life is so cool, my life is so cool

Oh yeah, from a different point of view

Maybe you're the guy who needs a second chance

Maybe you're the girl who's never asked to dance

Maybe you're a lonely soul

A single mother scared and all alone

Gotta remember we live what we choose

It's not what you say, it's what you do

And the life you want is the life you have to make

My life is so cool, my life is so cool

Oh yeah, from a different point of view

My life is so cool, my life is so cool

Oh yeah, from a different point of view
