Lyrics

I THINK I’LL KEEP IT BLUE (by Heidi Wolfson)

I’m a fly on the wall in a room full of women complaining about their hair
It takes so long torture it into place
They don’t like the color, the texture, the thickness and there is a definite lack of curl
And the that way it refuses to frame their face

I had to lose it, to find it
And lose it again to find it again
It comes from a divinity who knows much more than I do
So I think I’ll just keep it blue
Yeah, I think I’ll just keep it blue

Every conversation includes a plan to exercise
I hear you are training for a marathon in the city
I am spending much exertion on the art of compromise
And keeping my feet from wobbling out beneath me

I had to lose it, to find it
And lose it again to find it again
It comes from a divinity who knows much more than I do
So I think I’ll sit in this chair and decide not to move
Yeah, I will sit in this chair and decide not to move

We are here for such a short short time, and we are bound to deteriorate
There is such protest to that downhill climb
But I love the people I have, I love the people I have
They accepted me bald, so they’ll accept me blue

Oh women, women, my beautiful women
I love you though you’re not a perfect ten
I will love you when your teeth rot out of your head
I love you because you are my friend
I love you because you are my friend
