Snip Snip


Snip with scissors is all

Snip for the long locks to fall

Snip away the pressure

Without the hair, she’s nothing special

Upon the tower, she was locked

Her hair the cause of her distraught

Mother knows best she was taught

Hair that special would want to be bought

Snip and she’ll be like them

Snip and that will be the end

Living her life in fear because of her hair

Leaving the tower she couldn’t dare

Snip and her life would begin

Snip and that will be the end

Snip she dared to do

Snip and she looked brand new.
