TRANSIT - I'm So Indie lyrics
rate me(Indie Girls Intro:)
Girl 1: Can you believe Transit? I mean I used to like him back when no one else did.
Girl 2: Ya, before he made a song with Jann Arden!
Girl 1: Jann's so un-indie! So many people know who she is!
Girl 2: And that Geeze guy, from Natural Ensemble, I heard that he's not even ever seen Amelie.
Girl 1: Shh! here they come!
(Verse 1 - Transit)
I'm so indie I eat organic poptarts,
And hang out daily with the local rockstars
I got HD Wrap arounds, stole em from my Grandma's house
They call me asian cuz I always have my camera out
Me and my crew walk around smelling sharpie fumes
And I live off the popcorn at the Marquee Room
See I'm an artsy dude, and we just laugh at those stay strapped like car-seat crews
Indie is the term to let em know that we're not idiot,
Richy-rich city slicks making poppy kiddy hits!
So as long as this 59 Fifty fits, Imma be an indie kid
Peace out to Ricky Smitts
I'm so indie I don't wear plaid anymore
Say rad anymore, like that band anymore
Cuz i'm too indie to be like that anymore
You can find me at the vinyl at the second hand store
(Chorus)
Girl 2: I deleted my facebook, too much drama!
Girl 1: I don't even listen to music anymore, I listen to Buddhist chants!
Girl 2: The only time I watch TV is Shark Week
(Verse 2- Geeze)
I wear the tightest jeans around or at least I try to
Everyone does things different but not quite the way I do
I dropped out of ACAD and flunked my final
Told em not to throw it out though but instead recycle
I don't eat meat unless it comes with a toy and a happy meal
Gotta sweater vest with a horse on it from Value Vill
Most people walking, So you'll notice I'm just standing
Not conforming to these non-conformist people acting real fake
Acting like they're so trend-less but yo I'll end this
I gotta vinyl collection that's endless
And I watch movies from David Lynch that make no sense
It's better to wear glasses that have no lenses
And I, can't play my acoustic guitar, but I'm down to learn
Got 12 pictures on it for every month on my calendar
I show off new bands to my friends like I'm that bands manager
Bought a book on how to read a book, from Urban Outfitters
I can't grow a moustache so I drew one on my finger
And put it under my nose every time someone takes a picture
People get me mixed up with what's considered hipster
But I'm way too indie for that! Yo go figure!
I'm so indie I don't wear plaid anymore
Say rad anymore, like that band anymore
Cuz i'm too indie to be like that anymore
You can find me at the vinyl at the second hand store
(Chorus)
Girl 2: I have a Justin Bieber shirt! I don't even actually like him though, it's ironic
Girl 1: You want me to put more feather extensions in your hair?
Girl 2: No, that's so over, I only wear braided tree-bark now.
(Verse 3- Transit)
Climb with me, to the top of the indie hierarchy,
Where we listen to Wu-Tang for irony
On our bikes with our snapbacks and pirate tees,
Come and fly with me
Cutie is my target objective at Market Collective
She's smart/introspective and check out those specs kid!
I mean like, are those even prescription?
You look like Larry King,
Mixed with a vixen
I like dubstep and Aha Shake Heartbreak
But hate Only By The Night that's so played!
So played like my Gameboy played
With my knock off green and black wayfarer shades
I love foreign films, Lauryn Hill, scoring deals on pork-less meals
Retweets Green Peace and my friend's recording deal
I love my moustache, bus pass, corny little love raps
I'm so indie I thought you knew that!
I'm so indie I don't wear plaid anymore
Say rad anymore, like that band anymore
Cuz i'm too indie to be like that anymore
You can find me at the vinyl at the second hand store
(Chorus)
Girl 1: Wearing lenses in your glasses is so over!
Girl 2: I stopped shopping at Value Village, now I just steal off the coat racks at the Senior's home!
Girl 1: Everyone eats salad, I eat grass, like a sheep. Except I'm not a sheep... You're all sheep!
