Velvet Superiority

[Intro] [Verse 1] Sipping espresso in a thrifted velvet coat, Name-dropping Kierkegaard just to float a quote. Your Polaroid smile hides a celluloid soul, We’re jangling guitars but missing the rock ’n’ roll. [Chorus] Oh, we’re so profound in our shallow seas, Dancing in analog, begging to please. New wave haircuts and a borrowed groove, Pretension’s the anthem when there’s nothing to prove. [Verse 2] You wrote a haiku about postmodern decay, But your vintage synth just loops the same café. Strut through the crowd with a monocle glare, Whispering sonnets to nobody there. [Chorus] Oh, we’re so profound in our shallow seas, Dancing in analog, begging to please. New wave haircuts and a borrowed groove, Pretension’s the anthem when there’s nothing to prove. [Bridge] Crimson lipstick stains on a tattered manifesto, We’re all depthless stars in a neon rodeo. The mirrorball spins, but the truth’s in the cracks— A caricature chorus, no melody back. [Chorus] Oh, we’re so profound in our shallow seas, Dancing in analog, begging to please. New wave haircuts and a borrowed groove, Pretension’s the anthem when there’s nothing to prove. [Outro]
