Noah recently wrote to inform me that some other students at his school told him about beards.org. After checking out the site, he was inspired to write a song about beards! He performs his song in this video:
(Defunct video link removed.)
Lyrics:
I got the invitation
A month in advance.
They said it’s black tie optional
Just no athletic pants.
My head starts to accelerate
What should I wear?
I’m really more worried
About what do with my hair!
Who don’t like facial hair?
They’re insane, I must declare!
Having a beard is the best thing in the land
It is the manliest part of being a man!
I will be warm in the winter
I will be looking totally extreme
The only problem at the moment
Is that I am only fifteen!
So when can I grow it?
It will be here soon, I guess
While I’m growing my soul patch
I’ll be growing it with finesse!
Chin Curtain? FO CERTAIN!
Balbo? FO SHO!
Extended goatee? YES PLEASE!
Just grow a ‘stache, or maybe a soul patch
Who don’t like facial hair?
They’re insane, I must declare!
Having a beard is the best thing in the land
It is the manliest part of being a man!
….
Awesome song, Noah!!! Thanks!
Right on!
Partly encouraged by this site (and partly by a beard-appreciating significant other), I have been making a beard growing attempt of my own.
This photo is from day 27.
More photos from the same project. It is getting quite beard-like now.
