Lyrics
WHY DO GIRLS CUT THEIR HAIR?
Words and music by Joe Ciaudelli
Before I even start this complaint
I'm not, putting down fashion or taste.
I just love to see it wave in the breeze
Wild and long, simple and free.
But I don't understand girls today.
Why do they cling to conservative ways.
Why? Tell me why?
Are they in love, or are they just scared?
Why in the world do girls cut their hair?
Honey darling don't look that way.
I don't care what the others might say.
I don't care about what's in style.
I just care about what is wild.
That's what you are, when your hair is long.
Honey, nature is calling, the attraction is strong.
Why? Tell me why?
Are they in love, or are they just scared?
Why in the world do girls cut their hair?
Island girl, get on the back of my bike.
We'll cruise the coast line till the morning light.
No helmet, your hair will fly free.
We'll ride down to CoCo Beach.
On the sand, the sun up above.
Your hair will be our blanket of love.
Let they say, what the will.
We'll lose society and do what we feel.
Why? Tell me why?
Are they in love, or are they just scared?
Why in the world do girls cut their hair?
