Zippy viceregents nakedly dancing (9)
I believe the answer is:
energetic
'zippy' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for energetic that I've seen before include "Lively, dynamic" , "'Animated, full of life (9)'" , "Vigorous and dynamic" , "Showing great activity" , "Forceful, vigorous" .)
