Hipster Boy
Alice Vicious Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The lyrics to Alice Vicious's song "Hipster Boy" describe a relationship falling apart due to one partner's obsession with their phone and social media. The singer repeatedly calls out to her partner, asking where he is and lamenting the changes in his behavior as he becomes more interested in his online presence than in their relationship. Despite her efforts to communicate with him and get his attention, he remains focused on his phone and the attention he receives online, much to her frustration. The song's chorus emphasizes the singer's dissatisfaction with their relationship and her decision to end things with him, as she sings "Dumb dumb boy put your phone down, I'm so done with it, no more hipster boys."
By using the term "hipster boy," the singer seems to be criticizing the way in which her partner is trying to present himself as cool and trendy through his online presence, but at the same time ignoring the more important aspects of his life, including their relationship. She calls him out for being superficial and only caring about the number of likes he receives on his posts, rather than valuing genuine human connection. Ultimately, the song serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of becoming too absorbed in one's online persona, and the importance of valuing real-world relationships over social media.
