Velvet Pretensions

[Intro] [Verse 1] Sipping absinthе through a monocle glare, Name-drop Picasso like hе hangs in the air. Jangly guitars hum a tune so obscure, "Obvious?" No—it’s avant-garde, I assure. [Chorus] We’re too deep for the radio waves, Draped in irony, how the posers behave. New wave rhythms and a vintage facade, We’re the art you don’t get—but we’ll still call you "odd." [Verse 2] Thesaurus lips spill a cryptic cliché, "Synth-pop’s d**d," but we’ll resurrect it our way. Mirror-plated shoes k**k the dust off the past, Nostalgia’s a trend if you sell it so fast. [Chorus] We’re too deep for the radio waves, Draped in irony, how the posers behave. New wave rhythms and a vintage facade, We’re the art you don’t get—but we’ll still call you "odd." [Bridge] Postmodern prose in a three-minute song, The critics can’t parse it—but they’ll nod along. A wink to the crowd, but it’s all misdirection, Our pretension’s the point—it’s the *perfect* infection. [Chorus] We’re too deep for the radio waves, Draped in irony, how the posers behave. New wave rhythms and a vintage facade, We’re the art you don’t get—but we’ll still call you "odd." [Outro]
