Every Hair On Your Head (is white)
Down With Ben
My parents are turning 60 and they both have white hair (mostly). I wanted to try and follow up on something I made for them a few years ago and this is the result.
Key of B flat.

Lyrics:
Like a diamond weathered through the ages, you now truly shine.
There are not many like you who’ve endured the tests of time.
If wisdom is gained over years and years, then you are very wise.
So it should not be hard at all for you to realize:
Every hair on your head is white!
The achievements of your lifetime are enough to inspire awe.
Amazing but not surprising, a testament to one and all.
Now the clock keeps ticking on and on and you live to see another day.
You know yourself better than anyone else; look at the person in the mirror and say:
Every hair on your head is white!
Every hair
On your head
That has still
Not been shed,
They all shine
Oh so bright!
Every strand is a beacon of light!
