Galt MacDermot Hair Lyrics

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 Grateful Dead.
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..........
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..........
Flow it, show it,
long as God can grow it, my hair

I want long, straigth, curly, fuzzy, snaggy, s___gy, 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.

Oooh say can you see,
but if you can then my hair's too short!
Down to here, down to there, down to there
down where it stops by itself.

Dit dit dit dit,dit,dit
dit dit dit dit,dit,dit
dit dit dit dit,dit,dit
dit dit dit dit,dit,dit

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

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