Sometimes I don't know what to say
And I feel like everything won't be ok
And I wish all the kids wouldn't stare
And I wish that I really didn't care
As much as I pretend, it all gets to me
And a cool kid is something I'll just never be

I feel just like a kid in show and tell
That forgot to bring something so he showed his pencil
And all the other kids just laugh and stare
But I'll convince myself that I don't care
I'll convince the world that I don't care
I won't care I don't care I can't care
I won't care I don't care I can't care
OH I DON'T CARE!

Apathy don't come easy to me
Compassion is no longer a commodity
Can't pretend not to hear what they say
Sometimes I just want to run away
But I can't hide all my life
I'll never get tired of this strife

I feel just like a kid in show and tell
That forgot to bring something so he showed his pencil
And all the other kids just laugh and stare
But I'll convince myself that I don't care
I'll convince the world that I don't care
I won't care I don't care I can't care
I won't care I don't care I can't care
OH I DON'T CARE!

As we get older we all lose our dreams
As we get older we stop caring it seams
Human nature is for people to grow apart
And no one is immune to a broken heart
Why can't we all just get along?
Why do you always say I'm wrong?

I feel just like a kid in show and tell
That forgot to bring something so he showed his pencil
And all the other kids just laugh and stare
But I'll convince myself that I don't care
I'll convince the world that I don't care
I won't care I don't care I can't care
I won't care I don't care I can't care
OH I DON'T CARE!
