The Wrecks – James Dean lyrics

[Verse 1]
Imagine for a minute,
You get up in the morning,
And get what you want
You look good in the mirror,
Your shirt is full of money,
You're getting it on

Imagine being shallow,
Thinner than a shadow,
Thicker than wood
Imagine for a minute,
The way that I'd be living,
If only I could

[Chorus]
I'm no James Dean,
Heartthrob daydream
Bad hair, black jeans,
Not cool suits me
Girls won't date me,
Guys all hate me
Guess that must mean,
I'm no James Dean

[Verse 2]
I'd gotten to Nirvana,
and smoking marijuana,
My first year in school
But you don't really wanna,
Get busted by your momma
If you want to stay cool
She burst into the party,
Hadn't hardly started,
She was looking crazed
She took away my joint said,
"Nick I'm disappointed,
That's not how you were raised!"

[Chorus]
Cause I'm no James Dean,
Heartthrob daydream
Bad hair, black jeans,
Not cool suits me
Girls won't date me,
Guys all hate me
Guess that must mean,
I'm no James Dean

[Bridge]
I think we all grow up
Thinking life is gonna be like the movies
But enough's enough, 'cause after all,
You gotta get used to losing!
But then you stand up, shake it off,
Show 'em all exactly just what you're made of,
Yeah!

[Chorus]
I'm no James Dean,
Heartthrob daydream
Bad hair, black jeans,
I'm not cool, it suits me
Girls won't date me,
Guys all hate me
Guess that must mean,
I'm no James Dean

Cause I'm no James Dean,
Heartthrob daydream
Bad hair, black jeans,
Not cool suits me
Girls won't date me,
Guys all hate me
Guess that must mean,
I'm no James Dean

[Outro]
Yeah, Yeah
I'm no James Dean,
I'm no James Dean
