	Story Behind the Song The inspiration came to me when a hipster of insane magnitude parked his meticulously disheveled tweed and plaid covered ass across from me on the bus. He was the prime example of a Montreal hipster - from the trift shop clothes with everything in a plaid (including accessories like his hat and guitar case), and no two items of clothing coming anywhere close to matching. Fashionably, this one was the cousin to the ones who dress in black and write bad poetry about either the meaning of life and death, or the decay of the urban environment. However, this particular breed of hipster seems to prefer strumming an acoustic guitar and turning bad poetry into bad songs about mother earth and the evils of eating meat. More often than not these hipsters are suburbanite trust fund jackoffs who like to hang out in coffee shops after a night of taking black and white photos of graveyards and trade quotes of their favorite beat poets over a steamed soy beverage. I hate them, and so should you. This track was originally was a sarcasm-laden spoken word hipster bashing set to a looping electrified folk guitar figure over a simple hip hop beat. Tony Smith of mindFluxFuneral asked if he could have some fun with the track, and the result is a decidedly heavier track which packs enough punch to take a hipster's head clean off at the shoulder. Whatever's new to this remix is all his doing, so don't praise me for the results. Lyrics I want to be beat with the hip hop drum Grab an acoustic guitar and strum Jam to the Indigo Girls And wear black turtlenecks Drink latté, and write bad poetry on an iMac I want to be indie rock A New Bondage Fairy Hipster for a day And sing songs about trees Am I alternative yet? I want to be heavy mental See life in black and white Cut myself with razor blades Write haiku about death, misery War, loneliness, pain, the suburbs Do you know what I mean? I want to be beat with the hip hop drum Grab an acoustic guitar and strum Jam to the Indigo Girls And wear black turtlenecks Drink latté, and write bad poetry on an iMac Do you know what I mean?
