I'm Hip
Embracing the Beat: Ana Gasteyer's Anthem to Being Hip
Lyrics
I'm hip, I'm no square
I'm trendy and modern, not old-fashioned or uncool
I'm alert, I'm awake, I'm aware
I'm attentive, conscious, and well-informed
I'm on top of everythang
I'm on top of everything, aware of current happenings
Makin' the rounds, diggin' the sounds
Socializing and enjoying the latest music trends
I rock a jumpsuit and a lengthy bang 'cause I'm hip
I wear a jumpsuit and stylish bangs to stay fashionable
I dig, I'm in step
I understand and appreciate what's popular
When it was hip to be hep, I was hep
I've been cool and fashionable throughout different trends
Pabst Blue Ribbon in a can
Drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon, a hip beer choice
Strummin' gaily my ukulele
Playing a ukulele in a carefree manner
Follow me on Instagram, cause I'm hip
Promoting my modern lifestyle on Instagram
If I prattle too fast on my edgy podcast then it's my bad
Apologizing if I talk too quickly on my trendy podcast
Every Saturday night, using Tumblr and Skype on my iPad
Using social media tools like Tumblr and Skype on Saturdays
I'm too much. I read blogs
Asserting my uniqueness and extensive reading habits
I wear locally sourced vegan clogs
Wearing environmentally conscious vegan clogs
When I hang around the Flea
Participating in hipster markets like the Flea
Artisanal duck, served from a truck
Enjoying artisanal duck served from a food truck
and farmed organically
Emphasizing organic farming and conscious eating
I don't drip, yeah, don't trip cause I'm hip
Confident and composed, not getting upset
I'm hip, I'm alive
Alive and engaged with lively and spirited activities
I enjoy any joint where there's jive
Enjoying places where there's lively, energetic music
I'm on top of every trend
Aware of and following the latest trends
Hey, check out my show on Vimeo
Promoting my show on Vimeo and distancing from Facebook
I just blocked all my Facebook friends, cause I'm hip
I'm hip but not weird
Acknowledging the lack of a beard, a deliberate choice
Like you notice, I don't have a beard
Explaining the decision to avoid a beard for a more genuine look
My beard made me look like a dude
Facial hair is not a significant concern
Just keeping it real, facial hair's no big deal
Being honest about the impact of a beard on appearance
If beards are your bag I don't mean to be rude, cause I'm hip
Respecting individual preferences, not intending to offend
I tweet from my bike
Sharing updates while engaging in physical activities
I knit sweaters for tykes sold on Etsy
Crafting and selling stylish sweaters for children on Etsy
Collect my own eggs
Taking care of my own eggs from special hens
From my prize heirloom hens Jean and Betsy
Emphasizing the unique names of my prized hens
Yeah I'm cool as a cuke
Being as cool and collected as a cucumber
I'm a cat, I'm a card, I'm a kook
Describing myself as a fascinating and eccentric individual
I draw zombie cartoons
Expressing creativity through unconventional art
Rang a dang dang, it ain't no thang
Indicating that unconventional actions are no big deal
My voicemail's auto-tuned, girl don't trip
Having a technologically modified voicemail
That's just me, yeah I'm hip, hey I'm hip
Emphasizing my unique and cool personality
What it is, I'm hip
Stating the essence of being trendy and modern
A skoo ba da boo bah boo hip
Adding a playful and rhythmic expression
Yeah you know it girl
Confirming the cool and modern persona
Word
An affirming statement
