HAIRY LYRICS

HAIR
(from the musical "Hair")

She asks me why, I'm just a hairy guy.
I'm hairy noon and night, hair that's a fright.
I'm hairy high and low, don't ask me why, don't know.
It's not for lack of bread, like the Greadful Death.
Darlin'

Give me a head with hair, long beautiful hair.
Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen.
Give me down to there hair, shoulder lenght or longer.
Here baby, there, momma, ev'rywhere, daddy, daddy.

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair!
Flow it, show it,long as God can grow it, my hair.

Let it fly in the breeze and get caught in the trees,
give a home to the fleas in my hair.
A home for fleas, a hive for bees, a nest for birds,
there ain't no words for the beauty, the splendor, the wonder of my:

Hair, hair, hair, ...

I want long, straigth, curly, fuzzy, snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty,
oily, greasy, fleecy, shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen,
knotted, polka dotted, twisted, beaded, braided,
powered, flowered and confettied, bangled, tangled,
spangled and spahettied.

Hair, hair, hair, ...

They'll be ga-ga at the go-go when they see me in my toga,
my toga meade of blond, brilliantined, biblical hair.
My hair like Jesus wore it, Halleluja I adore it,
Halleluja Mary loved her son,why don't my mother love me?

Hair, hair, hair, ... 

I'm dealing with it everyday 
it just keeps getting in my way 
I've seen it from every angle 
and it's always in a tangle 
At first I tried to dippity doo 
Now I'm using Elmers Glue 
But I just cannot fight the funk 
because I'm a bad hair day punk! 

I'll spend my time, consumed by junk 
cause I'm a bad hair day punk! 
I'll spend my time, consumed by junk 
cause I'm a bad hair day punk! 

Manic panic's on sale at the mall 
punk in a jar, kids, let's not stall 
We'll show our colors on weekends 
cause we've got nothing to defend 
Let's get drunk, and smash the state 
as long as we're not home too late! 

I'll spend my time, ...

I'm going nowhere, I don't care 
as long as I have cool nose rings 
As long as I have punk rock hair 
just like I saw on MTV 
As long as there are punk rock bands 
I'll just keep my head in the sand 

I'll spend my time, ... 

(Where's my hairspray?)
