Cut My Hair Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Why should I care
If I have to cut my hair?
I got to move with the fashion
Or be outcast
I know I should fight
But my old man, he's really alright
And I'm still living at home
Even though it won't last

[Chorus]
Zoot suit, white jacket with side vents
Five inches long
I'm out on the street again
And I'm leaping along
Dressed right for a beach fight
But I just can't explain
Why that uncertain feeling
Is still here in my brain

[Verse 2]
The kids at school
Have parents that seem so cool
And though I don't want to hurt them
Mine want me their way
I clean my room and my shoes
But my mother found a box of blues
And there doesn't seem much hope
They'll let me stay

[Chorus]
Zoot suit, white jacket with side vents
Five inches long
I'm out on the street again
And I'm leaping along
Dressed right for a beach fight
But I just can't explain
Why that uncertain feeling
Is still here in my brain

[Bridge]
Why do I have to be different to them
Just to earn the respect of a dance hall friend?
We have the same old row, again and again
Why do I have to move with a crowd
Of kids that hardly notice I'm around?
I work myself to death just to fit in

[Verse 3]
I'm coming down
Got home on the very first train from town
My dad just left for work
He wasn't talking
It's all a game
And inside, I'm just the same
My fried egg makes me sick
First thing in the morning
