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

E, A 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!
