Deep thought in poetry is killing the masses
Hipsters and scenesters with big, stupid glasses
All hanging around with their big coffee cups
They all smoke their cigarettes and wear Converse chucks
So take off your Pea Coat
And let down your long hair
Lets get ready to learn
But you can keep your skinny jeans
Cause they sure do mean a lot to me
Lets get ready to learn
Cause you’ve hanging out at all those places
And you’re filling out so many spaces
Gah, Girl, you wear so many faces
I don’t want you like that, NO
I don’t need you like that, NO
I don’t love you like that, No No No No
You’re passive aggressive and you saved a whale
You couldn’t care less if you’re friends went to hell
For all that you know, well, you might go there too
Let’s forget this whole mess and go buy some Kavus
You drink Perrier, and quote lines from Rent
Screaming LA VIE BOHEME, as your money is spent
You smoke weed and grow seeds to open your mind
But Cracker Jack prizes were all you could find
