Lyrics

I'm hip, I'm no square I'm alert, I'm awake, I'm aware I am always on the scene Makin' the rounds, diggin' the sounds I read Playboy magazine 'cause I'm hip I dig, I'm in step When it was hip to be hep, I was hep I don't blow but I'm a fan Look at me swing, ring a ding ding I even call my girlfriend 'Man', I'm so hip Every Saturday night With my suit buttoned tight and my suedes on I'm gettin' my kicks Watchin' Arty French flicks with my shades on I'm too much I'm a gas I am anything but middle class When I hang around the band Poppin' my thumbs, diggin' the drums Squares don't seem to understand Why I flip, they're not hip like I'm hip I'm hip, I'm alive I enjoy any joint where there's jive I'm on top of every trend Look at me go vo dee o do Bobby Darin knows my friend I'm so hip I'm hip but not weird Like you notice, I don't wear a beard Beards were in but now they're out They had their day now they're passe Just ask me if you're in doubt, 'cause I'm hip Now whatever the fads And whatever the ads say It's needs fill I'll be keeping abreast Out in front of the rest with elites ville 'Cause I'm cool as a cuke I'm a cat, I'm a card, I'm a kook, kook I get so much out of life Really, I do skoo ba doo boo One more time play 'Mack the knife' Let 'er rip, I may flip, but I'm hip Ooh, I'm hip, ooh, I'm hip Skoo ba doo boo, doo boo, doo boo Boo doo boo doo doo doo
