Hair Lyrics

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 mom and dad why can't I be who I want to 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 livin' just as free as my hair
I've had enough
This is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair
I've had enough
I'm not a freak
I just keep fightin' to stay cool on these streets

I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer
I swear
I'm as free as my hair
(Oh oh-oh, oh oh-oh)
Free as my hair
(Oh oh-oh, oh oh-oh)
I am my hair
(Oh oh-oh, oh oh-oh)
I am my hair
Oh oh-oh, oh oh-oh
Free as my hai-ai—ai—ai—ai—ai—r (x4)

Sometimes, I want some raccoon or 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 city high school dance (uh huh uh huh)
I've got my bangs to hide that I don't stand a chance (Uh huh uh huh)
A chance

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 livin' just as free as my hair
I've had enough
This is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair
I've had enough
I'm not a freak
I just keep fightin' to stay cool on these streets

I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer
I swear
I'm as free as my hair
(Oh oh-oh, oh oh-oh)
Free as my hair
(Oh oh-oh, oh oh-oh)
I am my hair
(Oh oh-oh, oh oh-oh)
I am my hair
Oh oh-oh, oh oh-oh
Free as my hai-ai—ai—ai—ai—ai—r (x4)


I just want to be free
I just want to be me
And I want lots of friends that invite me to their parties
I don't want to change
And I don't want to be ashamed
I'm the spirit of my hair
It's all the glory that I bear I'm 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 hear
It's all the glory that I bear
