lyrics

Is that kid being mean to you?
Is that why you are feeling blue?
It's nothing that you did or didn't do
It's not what you look like, too

If they're all standing in a bunch
Maybe at school in the yard at lunch
Every snicker feels like a punch
Every whisper, you hear your heart crunch

You are cool just the way you are
Be yourself, the coolest thing by far
No one else out there can be you
It's true my friend, you do you

You think, is it my glasses or my hair?
Wishing that you didn't care
It's not about the clothes that you wear
It's about how you feel in there

It's ok to sometimes feel down
I get it, you feel left out
But know that this is so true
Only matters is what you think of you

You are cool just the way you are
Be yourself, the coolest thing by far
No one else out there can be you
It's true my friend, you do you

If you are you, and I am me
Everybody else can feel free
To be exactly who they want to be
So you do you and I'll do me

You are cool just the way you are
Be yourself, the coolest thing by far
No one else out there can be you
It's true my friend, you do you

You are cool just the way you are
Be yourself, the coolest thing by far
No one else out there can be you
It's true my friend, you do you
