'hipstagrrrl!' was written in my head while walking west on washington place towards washington square east. the irony is that I was actually walking with my girlfriend as these lyrics spilled into my brain from lord satan himself.
the waltz-meter recitatives are buttressed by primitive rhythmic thrusts in 7/4.

lyrics
you walked out the pages of a 2006 Cosmo magazine
always hip, never ever played out
by the trains on 7th street
hipstagrrrl, you make me want to smack you
cause you make me feel so blue
when you make me watch you
hipstagrrrl, always lookin' past me
hipstagrrrl, why you wanna hurt me?
I tried to pretend not to care
and love me better than you
but you wouldn't ever let me go
you made me watch you when I was blue
so I left the city for awhile--
to get my head together, like my mama said:
"you just can't love em if they make you feel bad"
but I loved you anyways
hipstagrrrl, lookin like you never had a family
living out a tragedy--
still you gonna laugh at me
hipstagrrrl, always lookin' past me
hipstagrrrl, why you wanna hurt me?
