I used to be a renegade, I used to fool around But I couldn't take the punishment, and had to settle down Now I'm playing it real straight, and yes I cut my hair You might think I'm crazy, but I don't even care Because I can tell what's going on It's hip to be square
I like my bands in business suits, I watch them on TV I'm working out most everyday and watching what I eat They tell me that it's good for me, but I don't even car I know that it's crazy I know that it's nowhere But there is no denying that It's hip to be square
It's not too hard to figure out, you see it everyday And those that were the farthest out have gone the other way You see them on the freeway, It don't look like a lot of fun But don't you try to fight it; "An idea who's time has come."
Don't tell me that I'm crazy Don't tell me I'm nowhere Take it from me It's hip to be square
