Velvet Superiority

[Intro] [Verse 1] Sipping espresso through a monocle glare, Quoting French poets in the neon-lit air. Your vinyl collection’s a museum of cool, But the chorus is empty, just a hipster fool. [Chorus] Oh, we’re draped in irony, vintage and vague, Dancing in shadows to a synth-driven plague. You’re a post-modern masterpiece, tragically chic, But the punchline’s worn out, and the melody’s weak. [Verse 2] You name-drop Basquiat at the downtown bar, While your guitar jangles like a broken-down car. Your words are all velvet, but the substance is thin, A pastiche of greatness you’re desperate to win. [Chorus] Oh, we’re draped in irony, vintage and vague, Dancing in shadows to a synth-driven plague. You’re a post-modern masterpiece, tragically chic, But the punchline’s worn out, and the melody’s weak. [Bridge] The reverb can’t hide the cracks in your pose, A New Wave requiem for the cred you outgrew. The crowd’s moved on to the next fleeting trend, While you’re stranded in vinyl, pretending to mend. [Chorus] Oh, we’re draped in irony, vintage and vague, Dancing in shadows to a synth-driven plague. You’re a post-modern masterpiece, tragically chic, But the punchline’s worn out, and the melody’s weak. [Outro]
