Born With a Beard

Came into the world one gray july morn

The miracle of life as a child is born

A healthy baby boy, 5lbs 8

And strangely, had a lot of hair on his face

The parents in shock, could only stare

At the tiny baby and his face full of hair

But the doctor just grinned and said "have no fear

That child is special; that child is born with a beard!"

Well, I was born with a beard

And I'll live with a beard

And I'll die with my pride...and my beard!

Oh, 'cause this beard that I wear

Well, it's always been there

My first breath, 'till my death with my beard!

It's hard to be at school when you don't fit in

They'd make fun of the boy with the hair on his chin

He'd get called names like "beardface"

And "beardie" and "beardballs,"

But he knew one day he'd rise above them all!

Yes, I was born with a beard!

And I'll live with a beard!

And I'll die with my pride...and my beard!

'Cause this beard that I wear...

Well, it's always been there.

My first breath, 'till my death with my beard!

Now I can make my stand as a proud and bearded man!

(Revered throughout the land)

Tired old man, a child on his knee

The child says "grandpa, tell me a story

"Not one where pirates and dragons appear;

But just tell me a story about your long gray beard!"

Well, I was born with a beard

And I'll live with a beard

And I'll die with my pride...and my beard! Yeah!

And beneath your smooth skin, there's a beard that's waiting

And one day...one sweet day

You will see... (you will see, you will see)

That we're all born with a beard

And we'll live with our beards

I won't die, long as I, have my beard! Yeah!

Whoa, 'cause these beards that we wear

Well, they've always been there

Let them grow, and you'll know

Let them be, and you'll see

From the start, they've been a part

A part of us all!
