Hair
(Rado/Ragni/MacDermot)
Lead Singer: Bill
She asked him why,
Why I'm hairy guy.
I'm hairy noon and nighty night night.
My hair is a fright.
I'm hairy high and low.
But don't ask me why,
'Cause he don't know.
It's not for lack of bread,
Like the Grateful Dead.
Darlin...
Gimme a head with hair,
Long beautiful hair,
Shining, gleaming,
Streaming, flaxen, waxen
Give me down to there,
Shoulder length or longer.
Here baby, there mama,
Everywhere daddy, daddy.
Hair
(Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair,)
Grow it, show it,
Long as I can grow it,
My hair.
I let it fly in the breeze,
Then get caught in the trees.
Give a home for the fleas in my hair.
A home for fleas,
A hive for the buzzing bees,
A nest for birds,
There ain't no words,
For the beauty of the splendor of the wonder
Of my...
Hair
(Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair,)
Grow it, show it,
Long as I can grow it,
My hair.
I want it long, straight and curly, fuzzy,
Naggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
Oily, greasy, fleecy,
Shining, steaming, gleaming
Flaxen, waxen,
Knotted, polka-dotted
Twisted, beaded, braided,
Powdered, flowered, and confettied
Mangled, dangled, spangled
And spaghetti! !!!!
Oh say can you see,
My eyes if you can,
Then my hair's too short.
Down to here,
Down to there,
Down to there,
Down to where
It stops by itself.
Don't never have to cut it,
'Cause it stops by itself.
Oh, gimme head with hair,
Long beautiful hair,
Shining, gleaming,
Streaming, flaxen, waxen
And won't you give me down to there,
Shoulder length or longer,
Here baby, there mama,
Everywhere daddy, daddy.
Hair,
(Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair,)
Grow it, show it
Long as I can grow it
My hair
Hair,
(Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair,)
Grow it, show it
Long as I can grow it

Walk Away Renee
(Brown, Sansone, Calilli)
Lead Singer: Bob
And when I'll see the sign that points one way,
The lot we used to pass by every day.
Just walk away Renee,
You won't see me follow you back home.
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same,
You're not to blame.
From deep inside the tears that I'm forced to cry.
From deep inside the pain I, I chose to hide.
Just walk away Renee,
You won't see me follow you back home.
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes,
For me it cries.
Just walk away Renee,
You won't see me follow you back home.
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes,
For me it cries.
Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall,
Still finds a way to haunt me,
Though they're so small.
Just walk away Renee,
You won't see me follow you back home.
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame.

The Cruel War is raging,
Johnny has to fight.
I want to be with him,
From morning till night.
I want to be with him,
It grieves my heart so.
Won't you let me go with you.
No, my love, no.
Tomorrow is Sunday,

Your Captain will call you,
And you must obey.

Men's clothing I'll put on.

As we march along.
I'll pass as your comrade,
No one will ever know.
Won't you let me go with you,
No my love, no.
Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny,
I fear you are unkind.
I loved you far better than all of mankind.
I loved you far better than words can e'er express.
Why won't you let me go with you?

And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair.

On the wind that makes her perfume fill the air.

Act Naturally
(Russell, Morrison)
Lead Singer: John
They’re gonna put me in the movies.
They’re gonna make a big star out of me.
They’ll make a film about a man that’s sad and lonely,
And all I gotta do is act naturally.
Well I bet you I’m gonna be a big star.
Might win an Oscar, you can never tell.
The movie’s gonna make me a big star,
‘Cause I can play the part so well.
Well I hope you come and see me in the movies,
Then I know that you will plainly see.
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time,
‘Cause all I gotta do is act naturally.
Well they’ll make a scene about a man that’s sad and lonely.
He’s beggin’ down upon his bended knee.
I’ll play the part, and I won’t need rehearsin’,
‘Cause all I gotta do is act naturally.
Well I bet you I’m gonna be a big star.
Might win an Oscar, you can never tell.
The movie’s gonna make me a big star,
'Cause I can play the part so well.
Well I hope you come and see me in the movies,
Then I know that you will plainly see.
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time,
And all I have to do is act naturally.

'Cause all of your hope is gone.

Until happiness is just a illusion.

And you're drifting out all on your own.

But darling, reach out, everybody reach out, reach out.
You just look over your shoulder.
