Yucky Yuppy
The age of the Hipster is officially over
Enter the era of the "Yuccie"
(Young Urban Creative)
Coasting off parental payments
Education exceeds intellect
A diploma equals entitlement
Little respect for predecessors
Qualitative labeling for all
Recapitulation due to oversight
Beatnik and Hippy rolled into one
With inauthentic pretentiousness
Even irony gets lost in the shuffle
Every damn dolt is now an artiste
There is perhaps no greater tragedy
Than meaning subverted by money
Anything to make a quick buck
Nothing is sacred that can be sold
The world's an oyster laid barren
Ah hell, take that selfie for Instagram
Watch another rerun of Seinfeld
Getting over oneself is no mere career move!
