about

Recorded at home by VP, mastered by David Marsden.

lyrics

I still get nervous at the hairdressers
The girls the gadgets the clippers the sink the apron and the mirror always the mirror
So how do you like it?
Shaped over the ears square at the back
Are you a student a good laugh?
And the radio always the radio

I’ve been to a few salons in my time
I’ve even had them visit me at home
Truth is I’m still looking yearning longing dreaming of that elusive style
To call my own
I still get nervous at the Hairdressers
The girls the gadgets the clippers the sink the apron the water-spray and
The mirror always the mirror
