G# D#
I'm the hippiest number in town and I'll tell you why,
G# D#
I'm the snappiest dresser right down to my inch wide tie,
A# D#
And to get you wise I'll explain it to you,
G# D#
A few of the things that a face is supposed to do.

G# D#
I wear zoot suit jacket with side vents five inches long,
G# D#
I have two-tone brogues yeah you know this is wrong.
A# D#
But the main thing is unless you're a fool,
G# D#
Ah you know you gotta know, yeah you know, yeah you gotta be cool.
