letra de are we cool yet? - rivermouth

[verse 1]
is this what they call “success”?
too many megaphones, not enough eardrums
who are we tryin’ to impress?
cake’s gettin’ smaller, we’re fightin’ over crumbs
trapped in the mirror, image-obsessed
worldwide popularity contest
runnin’ up the down-flowin’ escalator
and we’ll never be satisfied
how many likes did i get on facebook?
how many bites of the bait on my fishing hook?
insecure but plenty judgmental
use it like a knife but it’s still just a pencil
does anybody know my name?
if i die tomorrow, how many will notice?
nowadays, no one laughs like they mean it
we dance like the whole room is watchin’

[chorus]
are we cool yet? are we cool?
playin’ the game or are we playing the fool?
are we cool yet?
are we popular?
are we cool yet? are we cool?
playin’ the game or are we playing the fool?
are we cool yet?
[verse 2]
everyone’s lookin’ over their shoulder
gotta get it all before we get any older
cl!ck the thumbs up, remember to share
and if you don’t take a photo, you were never really there
mister politics seekin’ more power
chasin’ votes like a dog after pigeons
focus groups are his only religion
now he’s lost in the echo chamber
tough decisions, puts ’em off till later
fixated on the lowest common denominator
no need for detail, derail the vernacular
he’ll say what he needs to say to stay popular
say what he needs to say
and we follow like the road is one-way
’cause it’s all about the image, the personal brand
scr-pin’ names in the dust, this is not what we planned

[chorus]
are we cool yet? are we cool?
playin’ the game or are we playin’ the fool?
are we cool yet?
are we popular?
are we cool yet? are we cool?
playin’ the game or are we playin’ the godd-mn fool?
are we cool yet?
lost in the echo chamber
[piano solo]

[bridge]
see, we’re cravin’ affirmation like it’s air and we’re suffocatin’
slavin’ for the greater good, or are we just m-st-rbatin’?
cravin’ affirmation, but we aren’t gonna get it
cravin’ affirmation, might as well forget it
see, we let it control us, now we’re payin’ the toll
how many mirrors will we drown in before we ditch parole?

[verse 3]
we’ve got expensive clothes that look real cheap
botoxed nose and a pop top jeep
edible credit cards, plastic fruit
and a guaranteed fair-trade birthday suit
barcodes on our eyelids
hashtags tattooed on our wrists
we only raise our fists when no one’s watchin’
we only raise our fists when no one’s watchin’
we bust our -rs-s to make it look effortless
and every day is judgment day
we keep our songs upbeat with a catchy chorus
’cause that’s what the radio stations like to play

[chorus]
are we cool yet? are we cool?
playin’ the game or are we playing the fool?
are we cool yet?
are we popular?
are we cool yet? are we cool?
playin’ the game or are we playin’ the godd-mn fool?
are we cool yet?
is this called “famous”?
[outro]
’cause that’s what the radio stations like to play
