I'm NOT Cool !!..it's okay

Scott Krippayne - I'm Not Cool




Some people tell me that I look kind of funny
My nose is red and the braces didn't work at all
They say the clothes I wear are all out of fashion
I don't fit in and should be shopping at a different mall
I studied classical piano when I could've been playing guitar
I used to drive an El Camino and I'm not even sure it's a car


(chorus)
I'm not cool but that's okay
My God loves me anyway
I'm not cool but that's alright
I'm still precious in His sight
I'm not cool but I don't care
How I'm supposed to do my hair
I'm not cool but that's okay
My God loves me anyway



It doesn't matter if I know all the lingo
He dosen't mind if I'm not hanging with a certain crowd
Some people still believe in building image
But I am fine and that's a worry I can do without
I used to wish I was athletic but football was never my game
I met some friends in mathematics but no one can spell my last name

(bridge)
He says that I am one of a kind
And I don't have to try to be somebody else
He believes in me and says I'm free to be myself
I can be myself .


Colin introduced this song to me in the last few days and the first time I heard it - I just though it was really applicable to me especially with all the latest things and all. Like him, I now am finding it hard to get it out of my head !! This was a song I was waiting for - one that told me that pleasing mere man in your trends and the "latest stuff" was not "all that". We don't need to be cool as long as our God loves us we're fine !! I've learnt to leave many things behind and strife for eternal goods.. like God's love !! God bless.

Lots of Luv,
