The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You are the one everyone wants to be

I am the one they say, "I'm glad that's not me."

When I go to sleep, I dream about you

When you go to sleep, I bet you dream about you, too

Your life is filled with good times and cool clothes

My life stands still, just watching where your life goes

God please, let me live in your world for one week

This lifes all yours, and it's a tease for those like me...

And it's a tease for those like me...

Sometimes I picture myself beating you up

I see myself slamming your head off the ground

And you beg and you plead and you cry constantly

I'll make you say that I'm the best, I make you say you wish you were me

And then, in my mind, I see me fucking your girl

Your cool car is now mine and so is your popular world

All your friends, they love me, and love that I HATE YOU

I'm like superhero, God bad ass motherfucker red, white and blue

You don't know me, but I know you

It's a real love hate thing; I love to hate you (yes i do)

I get so frustrated... but tell me, just what can I do?

I'll never be you (So sad and true) [x4]

I'll never be you (Never never)

I'll never be you (Never never)

No, I'll never be you

I'll never be you (Never never)

I'll never be you (Never never)

No, I'll never be you

I'll never be

Never be Y-O-U

I will neva be…

I will never neva be...

You you you you you…

I wont be [x5]

(Screams) I WILL NOT BE YOU!!!

But alas, those thoughts pass, my daydream fades to black

Boring me, hopelessly, wishing that you'd be attacked

And raped by demented monkeys with huge cocks

And paint it green like a jellybean

Made a trampoline in a toxic swamp

You're so smug, and so fake with your laugh and your click

I want to be you so bad it makes me so fucking sick

But you suck, and you stink, and you're soulless and mean

I wanna be in your fake, smug world

So we can hang out down at the Coffee Bean

We can hang out down at the Coffee Bean (you know)

You and me hanging down at the Coffee Bean

I will never be

Never, never be

I know I'll never

No, I'll never

I know

No I'll never be you

I hate you, I hate you but I really, really want to be you

Fuck!
