Lyrics De La Soul – Ain’t Hip To Be Labelled A Hippie

De La is on the road
To blink and clear the hay
Behind the line of inner fine
We’ve explained this time and time
Daisies don’t mean everything
Daisies don’t mean anything
But the word itself when broken up
Wears just a larger pound
D.A. stands for «T-H-E»
I is «Inner»
S is «Sound»
Y is «Y’all», that’s you
Should see the Inner Sound
Will help you breathe
But still I sport a heavy sigh
When I have to explain
It’s just me, myself and I
It’s just me, myself and I
It’s just me, myself and I
It’s just me, myself and I

PAUL
So, you’re just yourself, huh, Pos?
POS
Basically Paul, that’s it.
PAUL
You mean you’re not a hippie?

POS
No.
PAUL
Not even a half a hippie?
POS
Not a nugget.
PAUL
Wait. What about you and Dove’s parents?
POS
Straight up Soul brothers and sisters.
PAUL
So what the full equation shows is «The Inner Sound Y’all»
should be focused on, not just the word ‘DAISY’ itself.
POS
Most definitely.
PAUL
Wait a minute. Did you say ‘Most definitely?’
POS and PAUL
Rrrr-rah!
