"behind your makeup"
"designer shades just to hide your face"
"but you probably wont"
those few lines seem very elementary.
If you are wondering about the song meaning, it is thinly veiled. It is essentially about a woman who thinks she is too good for him.
But the over-use of "cooler than me" really gets on my nerves.
If you ask me this song is very catchy. But I think the song was written in five minutes. And even though the lyrics have a meaning to them, the song is very simple - not in a good way. In a way that seems like it was written by a fifteen year old boy on his way to school on a school bus.
Honestly, I think the random "cooler than me" statements that don't rhyme or anything are very refreshing – the song is very conversational and I think the way the lyrics kind of jilt and jolt the listener around with how abrasive they are works really well.

Some Songs Don't Necessarily Have Meanings . Take For Instance The Lime And The Coconut Song . Makes Not A Bit Of Sense , But Ppl Love It ! Songs Are Just A Meaningful Expression Of Melody . At The End Of The Day , It's Still A Catchy Song That's Hella Fun To Listen To . Obviously You Think You're Cooler Than This Song . Hee Hee .

"...In a way that seems like it was written by a fifteen year old boy on his way to school on a school bus...."
In a way, I think that was the whole point. The song makes me laugh when I hear it because it sounds so silly coming from an adult. It may be based on true life experiences (and who hasn't experienced that at one time or another) but it seems obvious to me that it was meant to be tongue-in-cheek.

Watch the music video on youtube. It's more about him seeing through other people's eyes, and seeing what they think. Obviously they think high of themselves and consider them better than him, but the song has more depth than you think.

out of five stars I give this song two **
so a good song has to have deep or cryptic lyrics?
