Hippies Is Punks Lyrics

Misery’s a fleeting feeling
Do you ever think about me
Though you don’t have the time

Misery’s a funny feeling
You always leave me with that feeling
I’m wasting my whole life

So get me out of your head, and I’ll get you out of mine
Get me out of your head, it’s just a waste of time

Holding on and barely breathing
Staring at the stone white ceiling, I’m just a parasite

I’m unashamed, you’re unforgiving
I know you’ll never end up with me, so I won’t even try

So get me out of your head, and I’ll get you out of mine
Get me out of your head, it’s just a waste of time

So get me out of your head, and I’ll get you out of mine
Get me out of your head, it’s just a waste of time

I remember why I hated you again
And you say it’s cause of me that we’re not friends at all
And on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on

So get me out of your head, and I’ll get you out of mine
Get me out of your head, it’s just a waste of time

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Basically, this song is about a person who can't stop thinking about someone and they feel as though they don't stand a chance with them, so as a result, it leaves them feeling miserable. All the person wants is for this other person to 'get out of their head' so they can move on with their lives.

I think he's talking about that so bored chord progression that he uses in this song and on every album since wavvves.

I love the double meanings in all these Wavves-songs. This one describes the feeling that punks have (or had) towards hippies. Of course its also about a girl or a guy or a dog or a tree, whatever this guy is into. Jk i know he is straight
