The Lyrics

i used to bully a lot
i acted cruelly a lot
i used to slay louts till the break of day
oh, how...i would hit him
and in high time, i would rid 'em
i just loved to carry on that way
oh, i did some damage...i know its true
didn't know my strength was phony...till clipped by you

i...can't pump my pistons...i'm pooped out
no more samson...(no more samson)
i'm so weak, i need assistance
but i once...was a strong one...(was a strong one)
you just hauled off and cut it...wasn't nothing i could do
once, that buzz went down...all my pep was through
no more samson...ooh, i am a failure...no more samson

you know i don't understand
why you just picked up those scissors
did those crazy things to my 'do
now, my follicles...need boostin', baby
thinking, why'd i get this crewcut from you ?
why'd you screw up my tuft ?
why'd you make me look funny ?
why'd you lessen my might ?
did you think i'd hurt you, honey ?

i...know i can't take it...please grow out
no more samson...(no more samson)
no way i can fake it...i can't bluff
i'm no strong one...(i''m no strong one)
well, i'm bared...my locks were taken
kinda spent...my muscles achin'
no more samson...ooh, a bald ol' fellow...no more samson
no more samson
no more samson
no more samson

Well, I'd be "De-lie-lah-ing" if I said I didn't like this one...dude sure had one hairy situation, didn't he? 5's ~ ~ ~

DKTOS but you're usually spot on on pacing. 555, and that's no de-lie-lah.

Well, thanks to Paul and Tommy, I guess I won't be using the Tom Jones joke I was planning. Lemme think, lemme think... (shuffles the file cards in his head)... Got it! This was a parody of biblical proportions!

Paul Robinson, I have flippers instead of hands, and so type very slowly.... but if your thinking is getting to be as wack as mine, I would be afraid, Paul.... Be very afraid. :)

Here's my Tom Jones joke: It's not unusual to see 5's from me for this parody.
