To pay or not to pay that is the question
It refused to stay as it all turned grey
Or William Shakespeare's receding hair
Please excuse the pun, it's hair today, gone tomorrow
So be thankful for what precious locks you have
Toupee, or not toupee, that is the question
And by the way, I just gotta say,
Thank the Lord I'm not going bald
And if I may quip, my curls and I
Are just like heaven
And rest assured, there'll be no parting there
But should my head get bare like Frier Tuck
Hard taste to swallow
It makes me smile, 'cause I know just what I'd do
Yeah if I had more wigs, than I knew what to do with
I'd open a second hand store
And if you ever went bald, you'd recall it
'Cause I'd cleverly call it 'Rugs from me to you'
It refused to stay as it all turned grey
Or William Shakespeare's receding hair
Please excuse the pun, it's hair today, gone tomorrow
So be thankful for what precious locks you have
Toupee, or not toupee, that is the question
And by the way, I just gotta say,
Thank the Lord I'm not going bald
And if I may quip, my curls and I
Are just like heaven
And rest assured, there'll be no parting there
But should my head get bare like Frier Tuck
Hard taste to swallow
It makes me smile, 'cause I know just what I'd do
Yeah if I had more wigs, than I knew what to do with
I'd open a second hand store
And if you ever went bald, you'd recall it
'Cause I'd cleverly call it 'Rugs from me to you'

I adore this song with such an undeniable passion! It's the cutest, funniest, cleverest song i've heard for a long time. This song should have gotton bigger than it was (sales wise).
also he loves his hair
He is so awesome it's indescribable.
He can write an awesome song about the dentist, appropriate, sweet love songs, AND a song about hair. He is so amazing. :)
so it's both 'to pay' and 'toupee'
Adam Young is such a genius
