Hoo-oo-hoo-oo-hoo-ooh, hoo
Hoo-oo-hoo-oo-hoo-ooh, hoo-oh

Whenever I'm dressed cool my parents pull 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 sure of my identity (uh huh uh huh)
I scream mom and dad why can 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 living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I just keep fightin' to stay cool on these 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-r
Hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r
Free as my hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r
Hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r

Sometimes I want some raccoon on 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

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 living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I just keep fightin' to stay cool on these 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-r
Hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r
Free as my hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r
Hai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-r

I just wanna be free
I just wanna be me
And I want lots of friends that invite me to their parties
I don't wanna change
And I don't wanna be ashamed
I'm the spirit of my hair
It's all the glory that I bear
I'm my hair, I'm my hair
I'm my hair, I'm my hair
I'm my hair, I'm my hair
It's all the glory that I bear
I'm my hair, I'm my hair
It's all the glory that I bear
I'm my hair, I'm my hair
I'm my hai-ai-air
It's all the glory that I bear
I'm my hai-ai-air
It's all the glory that I bear
I'm my hai-ai-air
It's all the glory that I bear
My hai-ai-air

I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I just keep fightin' to stay cool on these streets
I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer (this is my prayer, yeah)
I swear, I'm as free as my hair
(Oh-oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) I'm as free as my hair (this is my prayer)
I am my hair (yeah, yeah)
(Oh-oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) I am my hair (hair)

(Oh-oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh)
