Story Behind The Song
I dreamed a song but could only remember 1 line by the time I got out of bed. I wrote this song about three days later and apart from some minor adjustments it pretty much stayed the same from one writing session. I love it when a song comes together like that.

Look around, how many people do you see out and about together, or driving down the road and they are more interested in their mobile device then being with each other.

She said, "You should hear this song like it's played on Vinyl"
(hear this song ohhhh) (ohhhhhh hash-tag vinyl)
"I got an Ap on my phone so you can hear it like that, it's all the rage" (ohhh free download) (ohhhhhhh trending viral)
Then she, smugly took a drink from her Grande Mocha Latte' (smugly took a sip) (ohhhhhhh Mocha Latte, half caf, five pump..
And posted what she said, as great wisdom,on her facebook page.
White mocha, ) (ohhh words of wisdom ohh on her facebook page)
I said, "Babe don't you know I grew up in the days of vinyl (babe don't you know ..........in the age of vinyl ,eight track, cassette tape
I had that album when it was brand new and all the rage (album when it was new you know and all the rage back in the eighties)
This May-December Romance has me feeling older and all alone" (May-December romance has me feeling out of touch but she didn't but she didn't hear what I was saying she was busy wrapped up on her smart phone
hear me, she was busy on her smart phone so stupid so stupid......
Hipster girl I hope you're happy in your web of isolation (hipster girl hipster girl hipster girl)
I hope you find what you need with your thumbs up counter validation (hipster girl hipster girl oh oh...)
I hope you feel blessed
by all your friend requests but
I think you should know.
I always loved you best but now I gotta go I always love you though
She said "wait I just got a hashtag blast that sounds important (got a hashtag blast it sounds important)
It says there's a Flash-mob Retro Eighties Band Playing 'round the corner (flash mob eighties retro band round the corner)
I know how much you like that kind of stuff, I think, I think we should go" (you like that kind of thing .......................so let's go)
And Hipster Girl looked up from her phone she was all alone (she was all alone........................ )
Hipster girl felt so lost in this real life situation (hipster girl hipster girl hipster girl)
Where's the Break up text, Where's the Dear john email Explanation (hipster girl hipster girl oh oh...) She'll have to blog about this, and tweet and post but first she'll have to change her status on her Facebook page ohhhh Hipster Girl
(hipster girl..hipster girl....hipster girl..........)
