Hair

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Whenever I'm dressed cool, my parents put up a fight (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
And if I'm hot shot, Mom will cut my hair at night (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
And in the morning, I'm short of my identity (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
I scream, "Mama and Dad, why can't I
Be who I wanna be?" (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
To be

I just wanna be myself
And I want you to love me for who I am
I just wanna be myself
And I want you to know
I am my hair

I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I'm just here trying to stay cool on the streets
I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer

I swear, I'm as free as my hair (Oh, oh, oh)
I'm as free as my hair (Oh, oh, oh)
I am my hair (Oh, oh, oh)
I am my hair (Oh, oh, oh)
Free as my ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-hair

Sometimes I waltz around, put on red highlights (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
Just because I want my friends to think I'm dynamite (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
And on Friday, rock-stead, the high school dance (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
I got my bangs so hot that I don't stand a chance (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
A chance (Oh)

I just wanna be myself
And I want you to love me for who I am
I just wanna be myself
And I want you to know
I am my hair

I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I'm just here trying to stay cool on the streets
I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer

I swear, I'm as free as my hair (Oh, oh, oh)
I'm as free as my hair (Oh, oh, oh)
I am my hair (Oh, oh, oh)
I am my hair (Oh, oh, oh)

Free as my ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-hair

I just wanna be free, I just wanna be me
And I want lots of friends who invite me to their parties
Don't wanna change and I don't wanna be ashamed
I'm the spirit of my hair, it's all the glory that I bear
I am my hair, I am my hair
I'm my hair, I am my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
I am my hair

I am my hair, I am my hair
It's all the glory that I bear
I'm my hair, I am my hair
I am my hair

Glory that I bear (Hair)
All the glory that I bear (Hair)
All the glory that I bear (Hair)

I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I'm just here trying to stay cool on the streets
I've had enough, enough, enough

And this is my prayer (This is my prayer)
I swear, I'm as free as my hair (Oh, oh, oh)
I'm as free as my hair (Oh, oh, oh)
I am my hair (Oh, oh, oh)
I am my hair (Oh, oh, oh)

Ooh, my hair, my hair
