The Drunken Severed Head

A late lyrical birfday present for the Boomers who are balding (like me!):

"Hair"

Lyrics by by Gerome Ragni and James Rado

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 break
Like the Grateful Dead,
Darling...

Gimme a head with hair
Long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming,
Streaming, flaxen, waxen

Give me down to there hair
Shoulder length or longer
Here baby, there mama
Everywhere 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, hair, hair, hair, hair)
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair!

I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
Snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
Oily, greasy, fleecy
Shining, gleaming, streaming
Flaxen, waxen
Knotted, polka-dotted
Twisted, beaded, braided
Powdered, flowered, and confettied
Bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied!

Oh say can you see
My eyes if you can
Then my hair's too short

Down to here
Down to there
Down to where
It stops by itself!

They'll be ga ga at the go go
When they see me in my toga
My toga made of blond
Brilliantined
Biblical hair

My hair like Jesus wore it
Hallelujah I adore it
Hallelujah Mary loved her son
Why don't my mommy love me?

HAIR! (hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair)
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair
Knotted, polka-dotted; twisted, beaded, braided
Powdered, flowered, and confettied
Bangled, tangled, spangled and spaghettied!

O-oh, say can you see...my eyes-- if you can,
Then my hair's too short!
Down to here, down to there, down to where
It stops by itself!
doo doo doo doo doot-doot doo doo doot

They'll be ga-ga at the go-go
when they see me in my toga
My toga made of blond, 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?

Happy Birthday a day late,. We always eat Chinese food on birthdays in this house too. Did you know that the dish "General's Chicken" (sometimes General Tsu's Chicken) is named after the author of "The Art of War" (General Sun Tzu)? How ironic is that! Being chicken could be part of war. Bruce Lee called it "the art of fighting widdout fighting". Anyway you'll probably forget this since you're getting older! Have a good one!

Happy Birthday to my Cuz Sara (vpdogjoe) who just turned 29 again!  She lives in her Spider Lair and her walls are covered with Vincent Price pics and lobbies and pressbooks and record albums and...wait, I think that's Vincent himself over there by the window!  Talk about "collecting Price"!
