Hair - Lady Gaga (album Born This Way)

This song is the only promotional single from Lady Gaga's second studio album Born This Way. Written and produced by Gaga and Red One, the melody of the song resembles the work of metal bands Iron Maiden and Kiss, and is also influenced by Bruce Springsteen. The singer told Ryan about the song in an interview back in February, saying it’s one of her favorite songs on the album.

Whenever I'm dressed cool
My parents put up a fight
And if I'm hot shot
Mom will cut my hair at night

And in the morning
I'm short of my identity
I scream Mom and Dad
Why can't I be who I wanna be?
To be

I just wanna be myself
And I want you to love me for who I am
I just wanna be myself
And I want you to know, I am my hair

[Chorus:]
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair
I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I just keep fightin' to stay cool on the streets
I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer, I swear
I'm as free as my hair
I'm a free as my hair
I am my hair
I am my hair

[x2:]
Free as my hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair

Sometimes I some raccoons
Or red highlights
Just because I want my friends
To think I'm dynamite

And on Friday rock city
High school dance
I got my bangs to hide
That I don't stand a chance, a chance

I just wanna be myself
And I want you to love me for who I am
I just wanna be myself
And I want you to know, I am my hair

[Chorus]

[x2:]
Free as my hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair

I just want to be free, I just want to be me
And I want lots of friends that invite me to their parties
Don't wanna change, and I don't wanna be ashamed
I'm the spirit of my hair, it's all the glory that I bare

Repeat Chorus



In my opinion, Hair and Edge Of Glory are very representative of her second album. In related news, the singer is dating Taylor Kinney. He is the male model in Gaga's video "You and I."
