Dawson, Kimya - Being Cool Lyrics
Is new york city really like a graveyard they all ask me
And I say well it was last week but man that was in the past
See I stopped going to the places where the people act so nasty
And pretentious 'cause I'm happy sitting with my friends in sidewalk singing songs
So I say please excuse me, step aside, or keep on moving
And I guess they sensed that my momentum meant that I was winning
But I'm only just beginning and I'd rather go with friends than go alone
And some people grab my hands and some people grab my shirt
Some people race ahead to see if they can get there first
Some people stay behind 'cause they've got something else in mind
Whatever you decide if you are true to you you're gonna be alright
Like akida he's a father now he is in love with amber
I wonder as I wander if I'll ever settle down
Or if every day I'll take my roots uprooted en route to another town
I was sitting on a couch somewhere watching vh-1
When I found out that bruce springsteen is his mother's only son
I'm my mother's only daughter and we were both born to run
Even he says it's amazing raising babies in the place where you come from
But I am a rock tumbler I've got rocks inside my head
And just because they come out shining doesn't mean that they are diamonds
And I guess that my worst nightmare is your very favorite bar
When I'm worth my weight in shale and slate I'll know that I'm a super duper star
I'll be a great big ball of burning gas and I'll be sitting on my big fat ass
Sipping cristal light beside a plastic wading pool
And the next day I'll be somewhere else part of me will hate myself
Part of me will know deep down that I am pretty cool
The part of me that knows I never cared for being cool
The part of me that knows I never cared for being cool
The part of me that knows I never cared for being cool

WOW so good

I think I'd faint with happiness if i got to meet her, let alone hug her! Sigh...She's amazing.
I love this song!
I live in Durham <3
insult fail

My favorite song by her. <3
Does anyone know what chords she is using in this song?
Jessica Mousley Cmaj7 and G!
I <3 her songs but they all sound very similar :/
That's really kimya dawson?
Her songs always make me smile and nod my head :)
lol Alicia Keys
@Hankyhonkytonk lulz
Kimya, you're a rock star -- you speak to my soul : )!
the things i would do to meet this woman
@misslaverton you speak the TRUTH.
@xX2301Xx let her be herself.. we all strum differently ;)
OmG :D
you're awesome n__n
thanks for making this a great & happy day
I want Kimya to adopt me
@HRGROCK
she believes that someone airbrushes honey on alicia keys' vocal chords...and something involving that. X3
whats up with ur strumming??
i'd die to see kimya live. she's so refreshingly unfake and i love the way her lyrics are...they're like wonderful little daydreams
thanks for uploading, ctscase, amazing vids.
she is beyond words.
Fuck pretentiousness and just enjoy the simple things.
Shame so many people hate this because its weird or different sounding...this stuff is true
jesus christ this is beautiful stuff
She's beautiful.
And the way she says "Crystal light" kinda made my day =J
TE - RI - BLE
@54TreeHugger Hahaha, silly me. I hadn't watched the video in ages and ages.
@54TreeHugger Is this a reference to "Rainbows?" If so, really??
Watching her sing this makes me cry. <3
shes.. so cool :D
@Galwaygrrl21 I got to hug her. I was filled with amazing-ness. I almost cried :)
@HankHonkyTonk why are you even watching this if you just want to belittle her? are you that insecure that you have to seek out people to bully? c'mon guys, get a grip
@HankHonkyTonk GTFO or die plz
Cute, fun, and yet powerful. Her lyrics, even in her more lighthearted fare like this, have such a resonance to them.
It sounds like just G and C to me. She's using a capo and sounds like she's playing in an open tuning, but you can play this song with just standard open G and C chords- I just tried it out. Or you could use barre chords if you want :)
She's got a lot of intense songs.
whoo! seizure hand! amazin!
mmmm Kimya's My hero. :)
i love kimya so much it hurts sometimes, and her music is just plain amazing
I think youre really cool.
a female version of Daniel Johnson and the devil
Thank you! You are amazing!
i love her music! im so tired of hearing rap and lady gaga lol her music is so much more powerful than that crap
i think 12 26 is her most intense song
or that i've heard
its like every song she writes is a little story from my life.
Hahaha i love that "cha cha cha" at the end.
Kimyas so honest and down to earth i love it <3
Im a Skylar xD
Spielt sie das ganze Lied über nur einen Akkord?
is she black or malado or mexican or tan?
love herrr.
her hand thats strumming is trippy. she does that so perfect...
Its what shes saying
Lol "cha-cha cha"
yeah lyrically she is gifted but id like to see more spirit through the acoustic guitar...reminds me of ac/dc good lyrics but can only play 3 frets and 4 chords.....
Rock on Kimya!
Shes Awesome I love her songs !! (: heheh
i love her and her songs! she is so unique! and i've never seen anyone play a guitar like that :)
you are sooooo awesome and this is coming form a THUG lol
me too *drool*
i know! it's so cool! it's s o hard to replicate!
i'm in love with the way she writes.
Cute. That's the best way I can describe her music. It's cute, and fun...like something you'd sing at a campfire...in fact, I have!
i love love love love love her(:
this is kind of ironic because she's totally cool :D
I love it, you said it! By the way, isn't love and understanding all that Kimya Dawson stands for? So stop writing stupid things to each other, be nice.
Soymilllk: No, that's true, though only in infants. That's why there are warnings on bottles of soymilk stating "This is not infant formula." It can stunt the growth of certain parts of the brain (I can't be bothered to look it up to placate some youtube troll) which is why babies are either breast fed or fed formula.
ANYWAY. Pretty great song. Kimya's adorable; I really want to hug her.
your right..but thats what i love about her. shes not great at guitar, and shes admitted it. but its okay. because shes just simple and very whatever about it. and i love it.
soymilk has been proven to shrink your brain and suppress your thyroid function.
seriously
beautifull mind...
Not necessarily, if you're used to fingerpicking it's not bad at all.
The chord shape is E.
she's such a beautiful person.
I know eh...she's just like, too cool.
:O i got a +2 for that wow thnx btw
lol good one
lyrics on her eyelids:)
i've always wondered why she sings with her eyes closed...oh well, i absolutely LOVE kimya!
i actually meant to hit thumbs down.
i guess your username explains it all...
