ratbag shares new single, pinky girl, which is about “girlfriends being cooler than their boyfriends”

ratbag has unveiled a brand-new single and lyric video, pinky girl.

The new tune follows August’s pinky boy, and hears the New Zealand alt. musician in direct conversation with herself about that track (which dealt with “shitty boyfriends and poorly treated pussycats”).

“pinky girl is about girlfriends being cooler than their boyfriends,” begins ratbag. “Much, much cooler. It calls out men who do the absolute bare minimum in the relationship and call it enough. And it’s about girlfriends and how they beg to find ways around resorting to murder.

“Half the time men are oblivious to how great their girlfriends are. Sometimes when I see half-decent men with their really cool girlfriends, I just wanna shake them and force their eyelids open.”
