"Clever kids" is a recurring phrase often used by The Hold Steady. It possibly describes their fanbase, or the fanbase of Craig Finn's last band Lifter Puller, who tend to be into analysing lyrical content and underground music. Sometimes even creating a Wiki to document their analysis. What geeks, eh?
