Lyrics
People walking round, living in a daze
High above the ground with their crazy ways
All around the town
Acting silly while they fly high
Highfalutin' crowds with their foreign cars
Living in the clouds, shooting for the stars
They can never see life the way it oughta be
Old ways seem to have passed us by
These days life is in hi-fly
Everybody's hip
Every kind of sound comes from every lip
Everybody's down
'Bout to really flip
Actin' dippy while they fly high
Old ways seem to have passed us by
These days life is in hi-fly
Everybody's hip
Every kind of sound comes from every lip
Everybody's down
'Bout to really flip
Actin' dippy while they fly high
Writer(s): Randy Weston
