Lyrics So Hip It Hurts - ABC

So Hip It Hurts

Do you remember when men wore skirts?
— so hip!
In kipper ties like jealous flirts — so hip!
In calico and in brocade shirts — so hip it hurts!
Do you remember when girls wore slacks?
— so hip!
Traffic stops, men get heart attacks — so hip!
Seems so strange that they took it like that — so hip it hurts!
He’s so hip — so hip it…
She’s so hip — so hip it…
They’re so hip — so hip it hurts!
So hip it…
Whose the girl with the kinski eyes?
— so hot!
They kind of face you could idolise — so what!
The kind of shape that gets advertised — so hip it hurts!
Once it was normal for a girl to curtsey
I’ll admit even though it hurts me
She’d squeeze informal until it screams for mercy
So hip it hurts!
He’s so hip — so hip it…
She’s so hip — so hip it…
They’re so hip — so hip it hurts!
So hip it hurts!
So hip it…
Afro-wigs on albino squares…
Polka-dots on alpaca flares…
Solar powered electric chairs…
So hip it hurts
