One is cool, the other a fool
One pretends, the other defends
One desires, the other inspires
One gives you looks, the other sticks to his books
One shoves, the other loves
One calls it Cupid's grace, the other knows it's a fake face

The Hot will go down while the Not stands his ground
The roles change, the Hot and the Not rearrange
The Not employs while the Hot destroys
Himself the Hot raises, good work the Not praises

At school the Hot was cool, now he's the fool
The Not now has Cupid's grace, while the Hot is just a pretty face
