Snowy Snowy Hair by Liz Larabell |
Note: this masterpiece was written in 2000 by Liz Larabell. It is (obviously) an absolutely hysterical parody of "Starry Starry Night"! I have a recording of Liz actually (gorgeously) singing her masterpiece a cappella, which I'll gladly forward to you if you drop me a line at better_still at yahoo.com. It is CLASSIC! But now, let the hilarity begin... Snowy Snowy Hair Snowy, snowy hair Before you go out today Use that spray to make it stay And hope that no one notices your flakes Covering it up It’s hard to do without a hat But only those who wield a bat Can get away with not washing their hair Watch them stop and stare As my dandruff flies away Oh, how did I know that it wouldn’t stay On my scalp, where it belongs? I didn’t scrub it; I had not the time And now I’ll pay the crime Snowy, snowy hair Flaming faces everywhere Contain laughter, and I swear That someday, they too will forget to wash And then I will watch As their dandruff fills the air It won’t hide within their hair And I will laugh at them as they did me For they couldn’t help it But still my pride was hurt And when I found I couldn’t bear Wearing snowy, snowy hair I chopped it all off in a deranged fit But nobody ever told me That dandruff can be stopped And that it wasn’t all my fault Snowy, snowy hair Now my head is wrongly bare I swear to God, it wasn’t Nair That took away my gorgeous, silky hair Please, don’t look so long; I can’t believe what I have done My tears make my mascara run I’ll never hear the end of this one Watch them stop and stare As my dandruff flies away Oh, how did I know that it wouldn’t stay On my scalp, where it belongs? I didn’t scrub it and I don’t scrub still Perhaps I never will... © Copyright Liz Larabell, 2000. Used by exceedingly kind permission! |
