Uh huh, life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh, that's the way it is
Cause life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh that's the way it is
Chill out whatcha yelling' for?
Lay back it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
you will see
I like you the way you are
When we're drivin' in your car
and you're talking to me one on one but you've become
Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're tryin' to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me
[Chorus:]
Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no
You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you're somethin' else
Where you are and where it's at you see, you're making me
Laugh out when you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes
You know you're not fooling anyone
When you've become
Somebody else round everyone else
you're watchin your back, like you can't relax
Your trying to be cool
You look like a fool to me
Tell me
[Chorus:]
Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no...
Chill out whatcha yelling for?
Lay back, it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see
Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back, like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool, you look like a fool to me
Tell me
[Chorus:] [2x]
Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no

vocal you ppl are right, this song was way overplayed. its not that bad, but i dont really like it...avril has way better songs. even she herself said it sucked!! (she didnt write that much of it) normally i like avril ( ) but this is one of my least favorite songs.

vocal First of all Avril`s music is ok but there is one problem about her that bothers the sh*t out of me! She says she is all punk and she dresses all punk but then when you listen to her music it`s "pop" music way before it`s "punk" I`m not a bug fan of pop music or punk but when Avril tries to be a badass and then sings pop music. Pop and Punk just don`t go. And I am not a fan of the song nor am I a fan of Avril.
i don't even know why i respond to these avril discussions..but here i am doing it anyways avril is a very horrible singer, but the whole "poser" and "punk" thing is taken too seriously, yes, i see where you come from but nothing is going to change so i think we all need to get over it.

vocal I think n e one who calls someone a poser is a poser themselves.
It's about the music.
She can dress the way she f*ckin wants to.
To be punk you sure do judge ppl alot. Bronwen
No one is born punk rock.
"And fitting into a stereotype to break rules"(which is basically wut u said.) is B.S. and the shallowest point a person could make.

vocal I just wanted to say that i really like this song, but nearly all of my friends h8 Avril and h8 her music. i don't really like her new stuff and I used 2 love her first albulm but now it just makes me see a reflection of the stubid wannabee I was in my first year of Secondary school. I still like this song tho.

vocal Yeah these discussions get kinda carried away which is why I hate them and yet am sucked into them. This is a site for lyrics so why are people looking up lyrics for an artist they hate. IRONIC! Another thing, Avril is a girl who likes what she does. She may claim to be punk, though I've never heard her say that in an interview. Even if she has, what's the big deal? Wouldn't you exagerate even just a little if you were gonna get her paycheck? If you love singing you just do it, I would know. So, everyone should just lay off.

vocal u noe... if u are a person who really listens to music, u will not mind any kind of gd music... with the exception of really really sux one... this song is preety gd... i dunno u guys with all tat -ve remarks but avirl's one gd artist... not tat bad...
number18...i soooo agree wit u.
avril can dress and act the way she wants!
all u "sheez a poser" ass holes need to walk up to her and tell her that to her face.
yer all posers!
people who act like sumthin thurr not are posers and everyone tries to be like sumthin else sumtime in life, it cums by nature.
also, avril never really admitted herself "punk" but when they told her they wanted her to be "pop princess", she turned her back and said, "i've just always been known to be a tough cookie, i'm no princess"
LEAVE HER THE F**K ALONE IF U THINK SHEEZ A POSER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if i were her, i'd go up to one of u asses and rip UR faces off and feed them to MY dog
i saw girls walking in the mall wearing "Anti-Avril" shirts, so me and my cuzin went over and said at the same time "u 2 r posers posers posers. so change ur shirts before we burn burn burn them rite off of u!!"
