lyrics

Let's stop before this gets to hip
Let's buy our big fake thick rims
I'm near-sighted, you're short-sighted
Let's all go hipster funk again

I swore those hippopotamuses
would never try to follow us
Ugly sweaters, what's the weather
Let's all start the hipster funk again

And yeah I hate cats that's not the point that I'm trying there's no point round blunt fat retarded
Let's all pretend we don't pretend

And I pray for love and I pray for death
You can send me to hell, it can't get much worse than this
I don't want to be loved, I don't give a shit
Let's all go hipster fuck with it

My band's so underground we play in the sewers
We're so unheard of no one's heard of us but the deaf
All our old stuff is better than the newer
You're only cool if you heard of us back in 2010

That was back when I sang of a wonder walrus
Before any talent had ever found us, let's stop
Before this gets too hip

And I pray for love and I pray for death
You can send me to hell, it can't get much worse than this
I don't want to be loved, I don't give a shit
Let's all go hipster fuck with it

I just want my life to make some sense
I just want my life to make some sense
And I pray for love and I pray for death
Let's all go hipster funk again
