Supercuts on Highway 6

[Verse 1]
Fifteen bucks at the strip mall by the Wendy's
Told her just clean it up, nothing fancy
She buzzed the sides shorter than I meant to say
Now the gas station clerk calls me sir today

[Chorus]
Funny how scissors change the frequency
Of checkout lines and coffee shop courtesy
Same face in the rearview, different story
Guess respect was hiding in my sideburns all along

[Verse 2]
Waitress doesn't hover when I'm counting quarters
Bartender pours heavier, doesn't check my order
Like I shed some invisible tax I didn't know I paid
For looking too young or too soft or afraid

[Chorus]
Funny how scissors change the frequency
Of checkout lines and coffee shop courtesy
Same face in the rearview, different story
Guess respect was hiding in my sideburns all along

[Bridge]
Mom says I look older, sounds worried when she says it
Mirror shows a stranger but I think I like the credit
For being taken seriously in fluorescent light
Even if I bought it for the price of highlights

[Outro]
Still got the receipt crumpled in my jacket
Proof that change comes cheap if you know where to hack it
