Flow it, show it, long as I can grow it

Remember those lyrics? They're from the late 1960s musical "Hair," a daring product of the hippie counterculture. The musical transformed on Broadway. It celebrated themes that were being discussed publicly: free love, integration, free love, pacifism, spirituality, drug use and, yes, nudity. To get us in the mood for the next few images, it might be worth recalling a snippet of the lyrics from a signature song:

I'm hairy noon and nighty night night, my hair is a fright. 

I'm hairy high and low, but don't ask me why, cause he don't know  

…… Give me a head with hair, long beautiful hair.  

Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen.  

Give me down to there, hair; shoulder length or longer.  

Hair …… Flow it, show it, long as I can grow it, my hair.
