Been staring in the mirror, hair down to my knees
Everyone's been saying, "Boy, you need to be free"
Caught in a tangle, stuck in my old ways
But it's time to change, time to clear the haze
The scissors on the counter, glinting in the light
Ready for a new look, ready for the fight
Gonna chop it all off, shed the old me
Step into the future, it's time to break free
Snip, snip, snip, there it goes
Hair on the floor, like fallen heroes
Snip, snip, snip, feeling light
Finally cutting loose, ready for the night
It's about time, yeah, it's about time
Took the plunge, cut the line
It's about time, yeah, it's about time
New look, new life, feeling fine
Years of holding on, to what I used to be
Afraid to let go, afraid to see
But now the weight is lifted, hair falling down
Feeling like a king, finally got my crown
Snip, snip, snip, there it goes
Hair on the floor, like fallen heroes
Snip, snip, snip, feeling light
Finally cutting loose, ready for the night
It's about time, yeah, it's about time
Took the plunge, cut the line
It's about time, yeah, it's about time
New look, new life, feeling fine
Punk rock heart, beating fast
Living in the now, forgetting the past
Short hair, don't care, feeling alive
It's a brand new day, it's my time to thrive
Friends are all cheering, saying "You look great"
Feels like a new man, can't hesitate
Gonna hit the town, gonna rock the night
With my new short hair, everything's alright
It's about time, yeah, it's about time
Took the plunge, cut the line
It's about time, yeah, it's about time
New look, new life, feeling fine
