Hair
Lady Gaga · Born This Way [2011]
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
(It's all the glory that I bear)
My hair, yeah, yeah, yeah
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
(Enough and)
And this is my prayer
(This is my prayer)
I swear
I'm as free as my hair
Oh oh-oh

Oh oh-oh
Oh oh-oh
I am my hair
Oh oh-oh
