lyrics

If your head is made of wax
If your head is made of wax
If your head is made of wax
Don’t go walkin’ in the sun, no, no, boy
Don’t go walkin’ in the sun

If your hair is made of steel
If your hair is made of steel
If your hair is made of steel
Don’t go dancin’ in a storm, no, no, boy
Don’t go dancin’ in a storm

Boy, you better listen
Better take it straight from me
I’ve been livin’ by these words since 1963

If your head is made of wax
If your head is made of wax
If your head is made of wax
Don’t go walkin’ in the sun, no, no, boy
Don’t go walkin’ in the sun

If your hands are made of straw
If your hands are made of straw
If your hands are made of straw
Don’t go startin’ up a fire, no, no, boy
Don’t go startin’ up a fire

Boy, you better listen
Better make your two ears sore
You come around again
I’ll be sure to give you more!

If your heart is made of glass
If your heart is made of glass
If your heart is made of glass
Don’t go fallin’ in-love, no, no, baby
Don’t go
