[Verse 1]
E7#9 So you E9want to jump out your trick bag
And ease on into a hip bag
But you ain't just exactly sure what's hip
So you start to let your hair grow
Spend big bucks to top your wardrobe
But somehow you know there's much more to the trip
[Chorus]
What is hipE9 tell me, tell me if you thinkC9 you know
What is hipE9 if you're really hip, the B7#9passing years will show
You in a hipE9 trip, maybe hipper than hip
F#9 But what is hip G9 E9
[Verse 2]
E9 You E9became a part of the new breed
Been smoking only the best weed
Hanging out on the socalled 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
[Chorus]
What is hipE9 tell me, tell me if you thinkC9 you know
What is hipE9 if you're really hip, the B7#9passing years will show
You in a hipE9 trip, maybe hipper than hip
F#9 But what is hip G9

[Verse 3]
You done E9went and found you a guru
In an effort to find you a new you
And maybe even managed to raise your conscious level
While you're striving to find the right road
There's one thing you should know
What's hip today might become passé
[Chorus]
