I just want to put in a few highlights, I said
Psst... I've never dyed a hair on my head
A dab of color here and there
Mix it up in my virgin hair
Wait, rinse, look, scream
This is a color I could never dream
It's awful, I hate it, I can't live like this
Hurry to the store, buy a pretty color, can't miss
Comb it through, yep, that'll do
Wait, rinse, look, boo-hoo-hoo
It's worse than before, complete fright
I followed directions, did it right
But wait, I've got it, I know how to cope
I'll swing no longer at the end of my rope
Call an emergency council of sisters
Soon I've got drabbers, strippers, lifters
My hair is restored, confidence renewed
I can go out in public, life can resume
But the only thing left that's bothering me yet -
I don't remember if I used to be blond or brunette!
