Lily, What's In Your Hair?

Lily ran in with a stain on her dress
A scuff on her shoe and her hair in a mess
She ran past her mother who noticed her rush
She said, "come back young lady. I'll give you a brush."
Mother tried to brush Lily's hair from all angles
But her hair was a big nest knots and tangles

Chorus:
"Lily, oh Lily what's in your hair?"
"Nothing that wasn't already there."
"I don't believe you, there's something in here.
You've used mustard for shampoo, haven't you dear?"

Lily ran home to clean herself quickly
while playing outside she met something prickly
She'd suddenly startled a little forest creature
Who defended himself with his famous feature
Mother noticed needles sticking out from all sides
Lily just wanted to go run and hide

Chorus:
"Lily, oh Lily what's in your hair?"
"Nothing that wasn't already there."
"I don't believe you, there's something in here.
You've scared a little porcupine, haven't you dear?"

Lily was getting ready for bed
Her mother kissed her on top of her head
"Good night little dear," she said with a tuck
But Lily's Mother's lips were suddenly stuck!
Lily cried out and her mother did too
"What on earth are we going to do?"

Chorus:
"Lily, oh Lily what's in your hair?"
"Nothing that wasn't already there."
"I don't believe you, there's something in here.
You've used glue for hair gel, haven't you dear?"

A plan was needed for this sticky situation
Lily's hair required some slight alteration
With a quick little snip the two were soon parted
But looking quite different from when this all started
Lily had a bald spot that looked kind of weird,
But her mom had a new little moustache and beard!

Chorus:
"Lily, oh Lily let's cut your hair"
"You already cut one spot NOW IT'S BARE!!"
"We won't have any troubles if our hair isn't messed."
So Lily and her mother cut off the rest.

"Lily, oh Lily what's in your hair?" 4x
