Two songs in my head last night -- Beck's Nitemare Hippy Girl (1994) and the Great Lake Swimmers' See You On The Moon (2005) -- both of which allowed for this conflation:

When I grow up maybe I’ll change my gender
Knit a poncho and a headband
Add a tology to your Scien
So we can audit my childhood triumphs
While your guitar goes strum, strum, strum
And your keyboard goes tap, tap, tap
And thank you, Beck Hansen

Maybe I’ll be a nitemare girl, work for hippies
Maybe I’ll see you on YouTube
I’ll see you on YouTube
I’ll see you on YouTube

There is nothing I can’t think
When I'm high on LSD
