For years I have been in this rut
Of every six weeks having my hair cut.

And for a long while
It has been the same length and style.

So I felt apprehension
And a bit tension

When I sat in Laurie’s chair
Who was ready to cut my hair

While cruising in the Middle East
And not being home for two more weeks at least

I was forced out of my rut
My hair no longer looked good without a cut.

My hair now looks terrific
After Laurie’s cut on the Pacific

And I feel in my gut
There is no reason to stay in a rut
