[CLAUDE]
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

[CLAUDE & BERGER]
Don't know

[CLAUDE]
It's not for lack of bread
Like the Grateful Dead

[CLAUDE & BERGER]
Darling
Gimme a head with hair
Long beautiful hair
Shining gleaming steaming
Flaxen waxen
Gimme it down to there hair
Shoulder length or longer
Here baby
There mama
Everywhere, daddy daddy

Hair

[CLAUDE & BERGER]
Let it fly in the breeze
And get caught in the trees
Give a home to the fleas in my hair

[CLAUDE & BERGER & (TRIBE)]
Oh a home for fleas (Yeah)
A hive for bees (Oh yeah)
A nest for birds
There ain't no words
For the beauty, the splendor
The wonder of my

Flow it (Hair)
Show it (Hair)
Long as God can grow it my (Hair my)

[CLAUDE & BERGER & (TRIBE)]
I want it long straight curly fuzzy (Ooh)
Snaggy shaggy ratty matty (Ooh)
Oily greasy fleecy shining (Ooh)
Gleaming steaming flaxen waxen (Ooh)
Knotted polka-dotted (Ooh)
Twisted beaded braided (Ooh)
Powdered flowered and confettied (Ooh)
Bangled tangled spangled and spaghettied (Ooh)

[TRIBE]


Oh say can you see my eyes
If you can


[CLAUDE, BERGER & TRIBE]
Then my hair's too short

[CLAUDE & BERGER]
Down to here
Down to there
I want hair
Down to where
It stops by itself
[TRIBE]
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

[CLAUDE/BERGER]
They'll be gaga at the go-go
When they see me in my toga
My toga made of blonde brilliantined
Biblical hair
My hair like Jesus wore it
Hallelujah, I adore it


Hallelujah, Mary loved her son
Why don't my mother love me?
