Tower Of Power - What is hip? - remastered lyrics

So you wanna jump out yo trick bag Ease on into a hip bag But you ain't just exactly sure what's hip So you start to let your hair grow Spent big bucks on your wardrobe But somehow you know there's much more to the trip What is hip? Tell me tell me, if you think ya know What is hip? And if you're really hip, the pa**ing years will show You into a hip trip, maybe hipper than hip But what is hip? So you became part of the new breed Been smoking only the best weed Hanging out with so-called hippest set Been seen in all the right places Seen with just the right faces You should be satisfied But still it ain't quite right What is hip? Tell me tell me if you think you know What is hip? And if you're really hip The pa**ing years would show You into a hip trip, maybe hipper than hip What is hip? Hipness is What it is! Hipness is What it is! Hipness is What it is! Sometimes hipness is what it ain't! You done went and found you a guru In an effort to find you a new you And maybe even managed to raise your conscience level As you're striving to find the right road There's one thing you should know: What's hip today might become pa**e' What is hip? Tell me tell me if you think you know What is hip? And if you're really hip, the pa**ing years would show That you into a hip trip. Maybe hipper than hip WHAT IS HIP? Think about it y'all!
