There's no rival to unprecedented pretension
If you listen to Beiber, I'll throw you an intervention
Did I mention my extensive record collection?
My tastes are a bit above your comprehension
I'm so underground oh, I'm so fly, oh
Even all of my cassettes are on vinyl
Urban Outfitters for the clothes that I buy
A sophisticated homeless look I want to imply
Spotify is an integral part of my survival
Oh my god, did you really just pronounce it "Bon Iver"?

I only listen to dream punk trip hop
Avant guard chamber grunge instrumental lounge pop
I'm promoting this fire mixtape I'm about to drop
And you'll be blown away in all this culture that I've got
I'm condescending, snobby and bitter
But trust me, I'm not a hipster

There's really no difference between The Smiths and Morrisey
I knew about Bach before he sold out, went mainstream
I prefer patterns in unconventional rhyme schemes
And when lyrics are literal, it really just bores me
Hold my latte as I rant about the bourgeois
The words "craft beer" are pretty much my mating call
Or take me to that concert in Portland or Montreal
Anyway, here's Wonderwall

Today is gonna be the day that they bring it on back to you
Just kidding cause

I only listen to dream punk trip hop
Avant guard chamber grunge instrumental lounge pop
I'm promoting this fire mixtape I'm about to drop
And you'll be blown away in all this culture that I've got
I'm condescending, snobby and bitter
But trust me, I'm not a hipster

Je ne écouter du rap Fançais
Fleet foxes, Bright Eyes, Flying Lotus and Homeshake
My favorite band plays mostly twee folk disco
I saw them last week at the chapel up in 'frisco
I hover backstage and watch shows in shitty bars
I drink kombucha out of a home blown mason jar
Have you heard my EP that's just been revamped?
You can go and download it for free off of Bandcamp
Ego's overflowing, my beard's full of glitter
But trust me, I'm not a hipster

If you say you like Kanye we're going to have drama
I wanna wipe T-swift out of Americana
I'm sick of The Pixies, Arctic Monkeys, Nirvana
You'll be impressed when you hear my favorite genre

It's acoustic hardcore electronic blues garage pop
Psychedelic Hawaiian shoegaze folk hip hop
Industrial Korean lo-fi post prog rock
Obtuse rubber goose, green moose, guava juice
Giant snake, birthday cake, large fries, chocolate shake
Wait, these arbitrary words make my head ache
Music is not something that I can take
It's up to interpretation it's whatever you make
The world's more delicious with all these different tastes
And honestly, I love it that way
It brings us together, something for everybody
Whether you listen to Japanther or the dreaded top 40
There's absolutely no need to act so high and mighty
Cause when it comes down to it, we're all music junkies
We're all music junkies but

I only listen to dream punk trip hop
Avant guard chamber grunge instrumental lounge pop
I'm promoting this fire mixtape I'm about to drop
And you'll be blown away in all this culture that I've got
I'm condescending, snobby and bitter
But trust me, I'm not a hipster
