Strum
D-DU-UDU
Shirin  Shirin Shirin Shirin
Shirin  Shirin Shirin Shirin
 When Shirin  cuts my hair
 it’s like a love  affair
 Let those locks  fall to the ground
 or let them stay  there
 I show her my passport
 what I look like
 But she just smiles  and lets me know
 it’s gonna be all  right
 Shirin Shirin Shirin Shirin
 Shirin Shirin Shirin Shirin
 When Shirin cuts my hair
 her mama's sitting in the rocking chair
 She tells me stories from the war
 in Iraq cause they were there
 Shirin pulls my head to the side
 but in the mirror I can see
 a tear in her eye
 Shirin Shirin Shirin Shirin
 Shirin Shirin Shirin Shirin
Your  hands are soft
your  hands are soft  just like silk
You're  a drop of  blood
You're  a drop of blood  in my glass of milk
Your  hands are soft
your  hands are soft  just like silk
You're  a drop of blood
You're  a drop of blood  in my glass of milk
,  x2
 When Shirin does her magic
 to my frizzy straws
 Immigration and tax represantatives
 stumbled upon the lot
 But what if it reaches the government
 that you have a beauty salon
 in your own apartment
 I won’t tell anyone!
 Shirin Shirin Shirin Shirin
 I won’t tell anyone!
 Shirin Shirin Shirin Shirin
 I won’t tell anyone!

When Shirin does her magic
to my frizzy straws
Immigration and tax represantatives
stumbled upon the lot

But what if it reaches the government
that you have a beauty salon
in your own apartment

I won’t tell anyone!
Shirin Shirin Shirin Shirin
I won’t tell anyone!
Shirin Shirin Shirin Shirin
I won’t tell anyone!
