Q&A
I'm not cool Lyrics
I thought you put me in rapture
I never asked you to dump her
Thought you knew we'd have a high life
And still I see
Your philosophy
Falling through my tainted mind
Would you dig my dirt?
Cos I'm so desperate
Can't you see you're wasting time?
I failed to tell you, to tell you now
That I've been fooled
Cos I'm not cool
And the scissors slide
Away with my pride
Speeding down a dead-end track
I wanted you there's no way back
Got a destructive appetite
Oh baby please
Lift me off my knees
A little smile can go for miles
I may be young
But I will grow up strong
And by then she'll look like her mum
Just to be absolutely sure of the facts
I'm happy to act just as a side salad
Happy to act
Happy to pay
Happy to wait
Baby youre great
When your oven goes 'ping'
I'll be there on your plate
When her oven goes bang...
I never asked you to dump her
Thought you knew we'd have a high life
Your philosophy
Falling through my tainted mind
Would you dig my dirt?
Cos I'm so desperate
Can't you see you're wasting time?
I failed to tell you, to tell you now
Cos I'm not cool
And the scissors slide
Away with my pride
I wanted you there's no way back
Got a destructive appetite
Lift me off my knees
A little smile can go for miles
I may be young
But I will grow up strong
And by then she'll look like her mum
I'm happy to act just as a side salad
Happy to act
Happy to pay
Happy to wait
Baby youre great
When your oven goes 'ping'
I'll be there on your plate
When her oven goes bang...

I think this song is about a girl who is with a man who already is in a relationship. He dumped his girlfriend because he fell in love with the other girl or maybe just thought that the other girl expects him to decide between them or something.
However, the singer never wanted this; she thinks that things were better before he left the other girl for her: "I never asked you to dump her Thought you knew we'd have a high life” Instead of putting her in rapture the man just messed up, now things are too serious. She really wanted him before ("destructive appetite", she took another girls boyfriend), but she did not want to be his number one, she was happy as a "side salad" and did not want to be the main course.
Maybe the singer is much younger than the other woman is, because she says, "I may be young But I will grow up strong And by then she'll look like her mum" Eventually the man feels remorse and always tells her, she is too young for him and so she tells him that maybe she is young but the other girls will be old and not that pretty in a few years. At least if her mom does not look like Megan Fox, I think.
oh and maybe she says that she'll just wait for the man 'till he's done with the other girls. "when her oven goes bang": when it explodes, then her oven just gonna make pling and there she'll be on a plate
