Ruined My Hair

Walking down a windy street
I got a hat on my head and I got shoes on my feet
And I just came from the barber shop
He took two inches off from my old moppy top

A thick bright coat of vaseline
I got a pompadour puff that looks real keen
Cause I thought it would match my new attitude
But everyone is staring at me like I am nude

Oh god I ruined my hair
Oh god I ruined my hair
Oh god I ruined oh god I ruined my hair

It seems I’ll have to accept this new person
Whom I see in the mirror it’s a new life begun
An opportunity they say
If you’re caught in a rut then there’s a different way

It’s time to ruin your hair
It’s time to ruin your hair
It’s time to ruin it’s time to ruin your hair

And it could be a life of excitement
Where every day is not an indictment
And who you are is who you’ll be

Oh god I ruined my hair
Oh god I ruined my hair
Oh god I ruined oh god I ruined my hair
