When I was a mere lad, my Dad always cut my hair,
But as I reached my teens and became much more debonair,
To the bald-headed barber I whizzed in my old hometown,
Seated myself in his chair and plopped my quarter down!

I had never been a paying...

Today, I chose to shave my head,
by a shaky hand I was led,
I tried to glide the razor,
cut me quick like a laser...
"Emergency room!" Enough said?...

I used to get my haircut, at the local RSL
Gunther was the Barber, he knew my hair real well
for 20 years he cut it, short back and sides or trim
whenever my hair got too long, I went round to him

I still sport a crop of grass on my pate

     But, alas, I have noticed as of late

You won't believe what I went through when I went to a black man's barbershop.
He was a racist jerk and when I left, I called the cops.
He forcibly strapped me in his barber chair.
Then that punk shaved off all of my hair.
As I looked at...

A Day with My Barber


First he overcharged me the cut ‘fare’
As a fine for shaving my greying hair
  Then I learned his screwball motive;
“Growin’ more grey I’d like you to fear
  “Appreciate me for bein’ proactive!”	

Then came a fellow with a shiny bald

My barber on a bicycle looked solved
looked so content 
Henpecked by his wife he used to go
to a cockfight every Sunday of the week
It was his only vice as far as I could tell
He cuts hair He shaves He gives a massage
I sit on his...

The Barber Shoppe of Hope
It was not what I was expecting at all
A barber shoppe in a rough side of town
But this is where the Lord sent me
So off I go…

A young guy was a new barber named Bob,
Bob, most of the time did a real good job;
cutting not his only thing,
dancing he would sway and sing;
eek, snip, snip, oops . . . poor barber Bob-   sob, sob !

a singing barber raises his voice to sing 
beautiful songs that make the hair take note    
cutting round the ear   
dadaism heeds, as   
each  falling hair sings down to the floor  

fabulous songs from Pavarotti brings...
