[Verse 1]
I'd like to cut your head off
So I could weigh it, what do ya say?
Five pounds, six, pounds, seven pounds
I'd like to go to your house and gather all your razors
And pick off all the little prickly hairs so I can weigh them, what do ya say?
Five pounds, six pounds, seven pounds

[Verse 2]
I'd like to gather all your friends and squish them all into a small
Swimming pool so I can weigh them, what do ya say?
Five pounds, six pounds, seven pounds

[Bridge]
Why weigh on a sunny day?
So much to do so why, oh why weigh?
On a sunny day, why oh why weigh, hey?
Why weigh, why oh why weigh?

[Verse 3]
I'd like to hear my options
So I can weigh them, what do ya say?
Five pounds, six pounds, seven pounds

[Outro]
Why weigh on a sunny day?
So much to do, so why, oh why weigh?
On a sunny day, why oh why weigh, hey?
Why, oh why oh why oh why oh why oh why oh
Why oh why oh why oh why oh why oh why oh why
Why weigh?
