lyrics

Well I went to the barber cause my hat don’t fit
Shave and a haircut that cost two bits
But you know when you live in a one horse town
Two jobs for one man and the other way around

Well the barber is the butcher and his mind is sharp
And the butcher is the barber but it’s not too smart
Cause the barber is a bargain till the end of the day
If you bargain on a barber then you’ll never get your way

He opened up a cupboard and he pulled out a book
All the different cuts and you can pick your look
Page 27 that’s the one I like
I wanna look when I'm riding on my bike

He said that’s fine but I’ll tell you what
You’d like much better with a clean crew cut
So he fired up the clippers and before I knew
I was all done up with an army 'do

He started with the razor and he nicked my face
Blood started spraying all over the place
I said “Oh Henry” won’t you please just stop
I came to see the barber not the butcher shop

So I left the old barber and I walked down the street
All chopped up like a slab of meat
If you’re looking for a bargain then you’d better beware
Cause you don’t want a butcher trying to barber your hair
