It's only hair Just because you wear a wallet near your heart You think you're twice as smart You know, that isn't fair But we'll grow up some day When we do, I pray We won't just grow in size and sound And just be bigger by the pound I'd hate to grow Like some I know Who push and shove the little kids around Just because we're kids
