Bernice Corta o Cabelo

Bernice Bobs Her Hair

Bernice corta o cabelo no barbeiro da praçaBernice bobs her hair in the barber's in the square
Todos os novos amigos estão lá pra ver isso acontecerAll her new-found friends are there to see it done
Bernice corta o cabeloBernice bobs her hair
Ela foi levada ao desesperoShe's been driven to despair
Porque sua prima não se importa com ninguém'Cause her cousin doesn't care about anyone

O cabelo dela era longoHer hair was long
O cabelo dela era escuroHer hair was dark
O cabelo caía pelas costasHer hair flowed down her back
E agora está jogado no chãoAnd now it lies upon the floor
Bernice sai correndo pela portaBernice runs out the door

Marjorie tinha dito o que usar nas festasMarjorie had told her what to wear to the parties
Marjorie tinha dito o que falar com os boysMarjorie had told her what to say to the boys
Agora Marjorie estava com ciúmes dos avanços sociais delaNow Marjorie was jealous of her social advances
E apresentou essa escolhaAnd presented her with this choice

"Bernice, corta o cabelo"Bernice bob your hair
Você sempre declarou essa intençãoYou've persistently declared this intention
Você se atreve a discordar?"Do you dare to disagree?"
Então Bernice corta o cabelo e é instantaneamente presaSo Bernice bobs her hair and is instantly ensnared
Na armadilha tão bem preparada por MarjorieIn the trap so well prepared by Marjorie
