... and while I'm at it, I might as well go for the jugular.

Barber-shop Song

For a hair-do where the whirl is,
Come to us at “Short & Curly’s”;
We’re the barber-shop just next to “Burger Queenie”.
We can style you, we can shave you,
We can permanently wave you,
We do hair that’s fine, or coarse, or in-betweeny;

We do long hair, we do short hair,
We make lovely wigs of bought hair,
Dark or blonde, they’re always glistening and sheeny.
As our champagne fountain dribbles,
We will give you tasty nibbles
Of tarama on a freshly-toasted blini.

While you’re waiting in the salon,
There’s Chianti by the gallon,
And we’ll play you soothing pieces by Puccini.
Or if literature’s your fancy,
We have Smollett, Follett, Clancy,
And we’ve even got the works of Seamus Heaney.

We will do you to perfection
A capillary confection
(Say goodbye to hair like strings of fettucini),
And with coiffeuristic science,
We can finish special clients
With a stylish razor-cut - just ask for “Sweeney”.
