Ian Dury - Happy hippy
Tekst :
I’m hanging up my hang-ups
Ere I turn into a blank automoton
You won’t find me on the treadmill
You can tell ‘em Willy boy has been and gone
Yes mogadon time’s over
There’ll be an empty bed in babylon
Cos i’m a happy hippy
It’s beads and roman sandles from now on
Yes I’m a happy hippy, they call me mr whippy
When everything is crappy, being hippy makes you happy
Wes i’m a happy hippy, and you can bet your bippy
That everybody’s happy ‘cos everything is trippy
I’ve found a new position
I don’t use chairs and tables anymore
I focus my attention from a lovely purple cushion on the floor
When I look back at the rat-race
I don’t regret a thing I’ve disavowed
With the freedom of an eagle
I can awlays keep my head above the clouds
‘Cos i’m a happy hippy they call me mr. whippy
When everything is crappy being hippy makes you happy
Yes i’m a happy hippy and you can bet your bippy
That everybody’s happy cos everything is trippy
Good day everyone
Now I ‘m a jolly beatnik
I haven’t got a worry in the way
My hair grows long and shaggy
As I savour every minute of the day
Immune from all achievement
Since I threw away my telly and my phone
In my pastroal pajamas
Spending every waking moment getting stoned
Yes i’m a happy hippy they call me mr. whippy
When everything is crappy being hippy makes you happy
Yes i’m a happy hippy and you can bet your bippy
That everybody’s happy cos everything is trippy
i’m a happy hippy and everything is trippy
i’m a happy hippy and everything is trippy
i’m a happy hippy and everything is trippy
i’m a happy hippy and everything is trippy, yipee

Dance of the crackpots Uneasy sunny day hotsy totsy Delusions of grandeur The mumble rumble and the cocktail rock Broken skin Ban the bomb Rough kids Quick slow Poo-poo in the prawn Hit me with your rhythm stick Waiting for your taxi Reasons to be cheerful Blockheads I believe Sink my boats Losowe utwory
One night with you
One dream come true
One love no man can deny
The good in your eye
One life undone
One song unsung
My world of fire and ice
Become paradise
Elysium come true in loving you
One angel of man
Giving me wings to a promised land
Leaving the world behind
One night with you
One sky come blue
One night...
From the bed to the car
Let us stick to you now and then
Move on, move on
Out of school, into home
Let us swallow you whole
Or just hold on, hold on
We were close
Army dub
Not as quick as you run, you run
You run, you run
Brand new shirt
Knackered shoes
Coffee made, office blues
And then run...
A bump is like a friendly letter
We are likely to enjoy a night together
Everybody is over here
Come on over don’t be queer
Before I kill it tell me something
Why did you hide your plastic money
And this thing you like to sing
Perched up like a polynesian
...
The clouds roll in one by one
And the shapes seem to spell out caution
Many worries in my mind
Without too many options
I take a trip to soothe the pain
And get away from the problem
I m near, sign reads clear...
I ve got a question can you answer me
Do you sleep when you re alone
Hey all you captains of industry
You line your pockets but you poison me
You re sitting on the edge of an emergency
Tell me how you sleep...
