Hair
Lady Gaga Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, whoa
Whenever I'm dressed cool
My parents put up a fight
(Uh huh, uh huh)
And if I'm hot shot
Mom will cut my hair at night
(Uh huh, uh huh)
And in the morning
I'm short of my identity
(Uh huh, uh huh)
I scream Mom and Dad
Why can't I be who I wanna be?
(Uh huh, uh huh) 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
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I'm just here trying 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 as free as my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
Free as my hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair
Hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair
Free as my hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair
Hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair
Sometimes I waltz around
Put on red highlights
Just because I want my friends
To think I'm dynamite
And on Friday rocks in
High school dance
I got my bangs too hot
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
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I'm just here trying 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 as free as my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
Free as my hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair
Hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair
Free as my hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair
Hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-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
I am my hair, I am my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
It's all the glory that I bare
I am my hair, I am my hair
I am a hair, yeah
It's all the glory that I bare
I am my hair, I am my hair
I'm my hair, yeah, yeah
(All the glory that I bare)
I'm my hair, yeah, yeah
(All the glory that I bare)

The song "Hair" by Lady Gaga is a powerful anthem about self-expression and identity. The song starts off with the singer talking about how her parents will try to change how she looks. If she's dressed cool, her parents will complain and if she's hot, her mother will cut her hair at night. Lady Gaga talks about how this affects her identity and how she just wants to be herself. She proclaims that she is her hair and that she wants to be loved for who she is.
The second verse talks about how sometimes she changes her appearance just to impress her friends. Even though she sometimes tries to fit in, her hair is always her identity. The chorus repeats the message of the song, that she wants to be herself and be free. Gaga uses her hair as a metaphor for her identity and how she expresses herself.
Throughout the song, Lady Gaga repeats "I am my hair" as a way of reaffirming her identity. She talks about how her hair is the glory that she bears and how she wants to be free and proud of who she is. The song is essentially a call for people to embrace their individuality and to be true to themselves.

Whenever I'm dressed cool
My parents put up a fight
(Uh huh, uh huh)
And if I'm hot shot
Mom will cut my hair at night
(Uh huh, uh huh)
When I wear clothing that my parents disapprove of, they become upset. Moreover, if I become overconfident, my mother punishes me by cutting my hair while I sleep.
And in the morning
I'm short of my identity
(Uh huh, uh huh)
I scream Mom and Dad
Why can't I be who I wanna be?
(Uh huh, uh huh) to be
The way I look after my mother cuts my hair makes me feel like I've lost a part of myself. I'm frustrated and cry out to my parents for them to let me express myself.
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
All I want is to be accepted and loved for who I really am. My hair is a part of my identity- I want you to understand that.
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I'm tired of feeling trapped and held back. My biggest hope is to live as freely as my hair does, and I'll continue to pray for that.
I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I'm just here trying 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 as free as my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
I may be different, but that doesn't make me a freak; I'm doing my best to fit in. I'm sick of feeling weighed down and held back but I'll keep praying that my hair represents the ultimate freedom I want to embody.
Sometimes I waltz around
Put on red highlights
Just because I want my friends
To think I'm dynamite
And on Friday rocks in
High school dance
I got my bangs too hot
That I don't stand a chance, a chance
Sometimes, I flaunt my edginess by dying my hair red. Other times, I try to look cute for school dances by styling my hair. Unfortunately, my attempts to look good don't always pay off, and I feel like I don't fit in as a result.
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 bear
My ultimate goal is to be unapologetically myself without feeling the need to conform. I want to be popular and make lots of friends, but I refuse to change who I am or be embarrassed about it. I take pride in my hair- it's an extension of who I am.
I am my hair, I am my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
It's all the glory that I bare
My hair is a part of me, and I take pride in it. I am who I am because of my hair, and it's a beautiful thing.
Ooh, my hair, my hair
I love my hair and take great pride in it.

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
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair

I just keep fighting to stay cool on these streets
I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer, I swear
I'm as free as my hair
I'm as free as my hair
I am my hair
I am my hair
Free as my hair
Free as my hair
Sometimes I want some raccoon or red highlights
Just because I want my friends to think I'm dynamite
And on Friday, Rock City High School dance
I've 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
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, I'm not a freak

I'm my hair, yeah (all the glory that I bear)
I'm my hair, yeah (all the glory that I bear)
I'm my hair, yeah (all the glory that I bear)
My hair, yeah
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die living just as free as my hair
