I'm as Free as my Hair / Edge of Glory

 Lady Gaga has released yet another superb single off her upcoming album “Born This Way,” which is set to be released next week (May 23).

Gaga rolled out the emotional pop-dance track “Edge of Glory” last week  but this time around she’s back to the “Born This Way” message and proclaiming that she’s “as free as my hair” on the new track

HAIR by LADY GAGA

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh 

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, woah 

Whenever I'm dressed cool, 

My parents put up a fight. 

(Uh huh, uh huh) 

And if I'm a hot shot, 

Mom will cut my hair at night. 

(Uh huh, uh huh) 

And in the morning, 

I'm short of my identity. 

(Uh huh, uh huh) 

I scream Mom and Dad, 

Why can't I be who I wanna be? 

(Uh huh, uh huh) to be. 

I just wanna be myself, 

And I want you to love me for who I am. 

I just wanna be myself, 

And I want you to know, I am my hair. 

I've had enough, this is my prayer, 

That I'll die living just as free as my hair. 

I've had enough, this is my prayer, 

That I'll die living just as free as my hair. 

I've had enough, I'm not a freak, 

I'm just here trying to play cool on the streets 

I've had enough, enough, enough, 

And this is my prayer, I swear, 

I'm as free as my hair. 

I'm as free as my hair. 

I am my hair. 

I am my hair. 

As free as my hair, hair, hair, 

Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair, 

Hair, hair, hair, 

Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair. 

As free as my hair, hair, hair, 

Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair 

Hair, hair, hair, 

Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair. 

Sometimes I waltz around, 

Put on red highlights. 

(Uh huh, uh huh) 

Just because I want my friends, 

To think I'm dynamite. 

(Uh huh, uh huh) 

And on Friday rocks in, 

High school dance. 

(Uh huh, uh huh) 

I got my bangs too hot, 

That I don't stand a chance. 

(Uh huh, uh huh) a chance. 

I just wanna be myself, 

And I want you to love me for who I am. 

I just wanna be myself, 

And I want you to know, I am my hair. 

I've had enough, this is my prayer, 

That I'll die living just as free as my hair. 

I've had enough, this is my prayer, 

That I'll die living just as free as my hair. 

I've had enough, I'm not a freak, 

I'm just here trying to play cool on the streets 

I've had enough, enough, enough, 

And this is my prayer, I swear, 

I'm as free as my hair. 

I'm as free as my hair. 

I am my hair. 

I am my hair. 

As free as my hair, hair, hair, 

Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair, 

Hair, hair, hair, 

Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair. 

As free as my hair, hair, hair, 

Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair 

Hair, hair, hair, 

Hair, hair, ha-ha-ha-hair. 

Ha-ha-ha-hair. 

I just want to be free, I just want to be me 

And I want lots of friends who invite me to their parties. 

I don't wanna change, and I don't wanna be ashamed. 

I'm the spirit of my Hair, it's all the glory that I bare. 

I am my hair, I am my hair 

I'm my hair, I am my hair 

I am my hair, I am my hair 

I am my hair, I am my hair 

(It's all the glory that I bare) 

I am my hair, I am my hair 

It's all the glory that I bare 

I am my hair, I am my hair 

I'm my hair, yeah, yeah 

(All the glory that I bare) 

I'm my hair, yeah, yeah 

(All the glory that I bare) 

I'm my hair, yeah, yeah 

(All the glory that I bare) 

I'm my hair, yeah, yeah, yeah 

I've had enough, this is my prayer, 

That I'll die living just as free as my hair. 

I've had enough, this is my prayer, 

That I'll die living just as free as my hair. 

I've had enough, I'm not a freak, 

I'm just here trying to play cool on the streets 

I've had enough, enough, enough, 

And this is my prayer, I swear, 

I'm as free as my hair. 

I'm as free as my hair. 

I am my hair. 

I am my hair. 

Ooh, my hair, my hair.

"Edge of Glory" it's a massive power ballad with heavy club beats that features Clarence Clemons of the E Street Band wailing on his saxophone. There's an element of cheesiness to it, but it's totally captivating and incredibly catchy. If any of these new Gaga tunes demands to be a big fat hit, this is it. The inclusion of Clemons is an inspired touch that amplifies the song's Eighties stadium rock vibe, but his actual performance is amazing and ranks among the best of his career


EDGE of GLORY by Lady Gaga
There ain't no reason you and me should be alone
Tonight, yeah baby
Tonight, yeah baby
I got a reason that you're who should take me home tonight

I need a man that thinks it's right when it's so wrong
Tonight, yeah baby
Tonight, yeah baby
Right on the limits where we know we both belong tonight

It's time to feel the rush
To push the dangerous
I'm gonna run back to, to the edge with you
Where we can both fall over in love

I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment of truth
Out on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge with you

Another shot before we kiss the other side
Tonight, yeah baby
Tonight, yeah baby
I'm on the edge of something final we call life tonight
Alright, alright
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/l/lady_gaga/edge_of_glory.html ]
Pull on your shades 'cause I'll be dancing in the flames
Tonight, yeah baby
Tonight, yeah baby
It doesn't hurt 'cause everybody knows my name tonight
Alright, alright

It's time to feel the rush
To push the dangerous
I'm gonna run back to, to the edge with you
Where we can both fall over in love

I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment of truth
Out on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge with you

I'm on the edge with you

I'm on the edge with you

I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment of truth
Out on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
The edge
I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge with you
