It might sound a bit silly, but loud words are not prone to make Jack act hypocritical and foolish. But for this particular girl, they seem to do nothing but set her off in the wrong direction.
But if you're thinkin' like that, I think you'll see that you're mad at you too Jack White – Hypocritical Kiss

This woman is trying to point the finger at Jack, and blame him for everything.
Meanwhile, Jack is saying that if you’re trying to point the finger at someone, maybe you should point it at your hypocritical self.
And when I said that I mean I know every single thing that I said was true Jack White – Hypocritical Kiss

Sometimes when people’s tempers take a hold of them, they often get the “best” of them in the sense that what they are saying is false and not actually the best.
However, with Jack, his temper actually got the best of him, and everything he just said to this woman was 100% true and he meant it.
HE’S NOT APOLOGIZING.

The odds might be stacked up against Jack, but the fact that this is even true bothers him so much so that he can’t even sit still. He doesn’t care if the odds are against him, he’s going to give it his all and go out with his guns blazing.
And it turns me on when the song takes over me Jack White – Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy

Everyone gets these at some point or another when they’re listening to music or even making music. You get your hairs standing on end and you really start to feel the music and vibe out to it. Some might even argue that this kind of thing can shift a mood into something more sexually driven.
Doin' all the things that I don't need to do
But while you're laughin' at me, well I'll be laughin' at you Jack White – Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy

People might think that Jack White is fucking bonkers for doing all of the shit that he does with music. He has two separate bands for his own projects and concerts; one all female, and one all male, and both with significantly different styles when they play.
Jack also has The Dead Weather, and The Raconteurs, along with his own record label, Third Man Records.
And maybe people, or Meg, will look at these things as things that Jack doesn’t need to do because he’s already got everything going for him. And they might laugh at him for it which seems silly because with all of these different projects, Jack is going to be laughing at everyone else all the way to the bank.
Keep on stayin' the same, ain't nobody to blame

This lyric refers to Meg’s stage fright “you might be makin' ‘em stare” rather than Jack’s desire to control her. This has been stated as a possible reason for her to quit the White Stripes.
