Chairman Mao
An early photograph
Of the young brave with a confident grin
Who is celebrating his first defeat
By clutching a hair cut from his skull
A pigtail...
Enter the modern man
Like a young brave with a price on his head
"Delilah," said Samson
"Stick this up yours!"
The symbol is clear
Cut from his skull
A long hair...
Is this the missing link?
The dreaded locks kept him bound to remain
Unable to avoid to the sacrifice
The shock back and sides...
The closest shave...
The pigtail...
Remember how it's done
First you must think it, but then you've begun
Seemingly retreating
The coiling spring...
Is triggered to leap...
Farther ahead...
The long march
Of the young brave with a confident grin
Who is celebrating his first defeat
By clutching a hair cut from his skull
A pigtail...
Enter the modern man
Like a young brave with a price on his head
"Delilah," said Samson
"Stick this up yours!"
The symbol is clear
Cut from his skull
A long hair...
Is this the missing link?
The dreaded locks kept him bound to remain
Unable to avoid to the sacrifice
The shock back and sides...
The closest shave...
The pigtail...
Remember how it's done
First you must think it, but then you've begun
Seemingly retreating
The coiling spring...
Is triggered to leap...
Farther ahead...
The long march
