Mel Tormé - I'm Hip Lyrics
I'm hip, I'm no square, I'm alert, I'm awakeI'm aware, I am always on the sceneMakin' the rounds, diggin' the soundsI read playboy magazine 'cause I'm hipI dig, I'm in step, when it was hip to be hep I was hepI don't blow but I'm a fanLook at me swing, ring a ding, dingI even call my girlfriend, man, I'm so hipEvery Saturday night with my suit buttoned tightAnd my suede's on, I'm gettin' my kicksWatching arty French flicks with my shades onI'm too much, I'm a gas, I am anything but middle classWhen I hang around the bandPoppin' my thumbs, diggin' the drumsSquares don't seem to understand why I flipThey're not hip like I'm hipI'm hip, I'm aliveI enjoy any joint where there's jiveI'm on top of every trend, look at me goBobby Darrin knows my friend, I'm so hipI'm hip but not weird like you notice I don't wear a beardBeards were in but now they're outThey had they're day now they're passeJust ask me if you're in doubt 'cause I'm hipNow whatever the fadsAnd whatever the ads say is neatsvilleI'll be keeping abreastOut in front with the rest of elitesville 'cause I'm cool as a cukeI'm a cat, I'm a card, I'm a kookI get so much out of life, really, I doOne more time play "Mack the Knife"Let 'er rip, I may flip, but I'm hip, I'm hip, I'm hip
