Hair

Lady Gaga · Born This Way [2011]

Hoo, ou, ou, ou, ou, ou, ou, ou, oh

Hoo, ou, ou, ou, ou, ou, ou, ou, woah



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 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 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'm just here fightin'

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

Oh oh-oh

I'm as 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-ai-r

Hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r hair

Free as my hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r

Hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r hai-ai-ai-ai-r



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

(Ha, ah, ah, ah)



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'm just here fightin'

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

Oh oh-oh

I'm as 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-ai-r

Hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r hair

Free as my hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r

Hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r hai-ai-ai-ai-r



I just want to be free

I just want to be me

And I want lots of friends

That invite me to their parties



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 hair

(It's all the glory that I bear)



I'm my hair, I am my hair

It's all the glory that I bear

I'm my hair, I am my hair

I'm my hair, yeah, yeah

(It's all the glory that I bear)

I'm my hair, yeah, yeah

(It's all the glory that I bear)

I'm my hair, yeah, yeah
