Story behind the song

Written after Jeff had a bad experience in retail, wherein a stupid, stupid person left his store muttering "gawdang long hairs"
the rest is self-explanatory.

Lyrics

(album lyrics, not the same as mp3) copyright 1998, the Passion Lizards, all rights reserved.

at 16 years he was growin' his hair
Mom n Dad screamin son yer goin nowhere
spent 10 times more on his gear than his car
but then you know how those longhairs are

Finished high school so his folks wouldn't hack
all the time learnin how to play on his back
never had a girlfriend cause he never had time
he was learning 64th notes and singing harmony lines
(chor1)
Long live the longhairs brother, aint much of a life but we don't want no other, you might not like it that we're not on yer track,,,
but lemme show ya how I can play on my back

for 18 years he's been out on the road
playin dirty old bars, and searchin for gold
wrote 23 songs in a week and a day
started to feel like things were going OK

for 22 years he's been in the same band
still has a dream of rockin the land
met a nice girl that never gave him no flack
besides, she liked the way he played on his back!
(chor2)
Long live the longhairs brother, aint much of a life but we don't want no other, the shorthairs always want us outta thier town.. 
cause their girlfriends like it when we play upside down
(solo) 
(bridge
Now he likes ACDC when he's in the bath, Judas Priest helps him mow the lawn real fast, Likes Deep Purple when there's something to fix... they concieved their first child, while listening to Kiss..
