“Nitemare Hippy Girl” describes a significant other who has her positive and negative qualities. Her character and appearance reflect the resurgence of New-Age hippie culture in the nineties, as she indulges in the past culture while still assuming a more modern personality.
[Verse 1]
She took me off my guard with disappointment
I got sucked inside of her apartment
She's got dried-up flowers, flaky skin
A beaded necklace and a bottle of gin
[Chorus]
She's a nightmare Hippy girl
With her skinny fingers fondling my world
She's a whimsical, tragical beauty
Self-conscious and a little bit—moody
[Verse 2]
It's a new age letdown in my face
She's so spaced out and there ain't no space
She's got marijuana on the bathroom tile
I'm caught in a vortex, she's changing my style
[Chorus]
She's a nightmare Hippy girl
With her skinny fingers fondling my world
She's a whimsical, tragical beauty
Uptight and a little bit—snooty
[Outro]
She's a magical, sparkling tease
She's a rainbow choking the breeze
Yo, she's busting out onto the scene
With nightmare bogus poetry
She's a melted avocado on the shelf
She's the science of herself
She's spazzing out on a cosmic level
And she's meditating with the devil
She's cooking salad for breakfast
She's got tofu the size of Texas
She's a witness to her own glory
She's a never-ending story
She's a frolicking depression
She's a self-inflicted obsession
She's got a thousand lonely husbands
She's playing footsie in another dimension
She's a goddess milking her time
For all that it's worth
