[Verse 1]
It’s dark in there, yeah
That’s where the tough ones grow
You can grip and grin
Or let the whole thing show
Tiny roots in the mess
Still reaching for the light
Even in the worst pit
Something stays alive
[Pre-Chorus]
So quit your griping
Quit your little sigh
Pain ain’t the ending
It’s just the alibi
[Chorus]
Butthole hair thrives
Butthole hair thrives
In a dark, crappy world
Butthole hair thrives
Man up, get moving
Don’t you waste that breath
If it can survive that mess
So can you after this
[Verse 2]
You want clean and easy
But life don’t play fair
It kicks over the bucket
Then walks outta there
Still you stand up straight
With a face that says “try me”
If the gross stuff grows
Then so can your spine, see
[Pre-Chorus]
So quit your griping
Quit your little sigh
Pain ain’t the ending
It’s just the alibi
[Chorus]
Butthole hair thrives
Butthole hair thrives
In a dark, crappy world
Butthole hair thrives
Man up, get moving
Don’t you waste that breath
If it can survive that mess
So can you after this
[Bridge]
Yeah, it’s ugly
Yeah, it’s low
But the hard stuff
Makes the hard ones glow
Take the hit
Hold your ground
If the worst place blooms
Then you can turn around
[Final Chorus]
Butthole hair thrives
Butthole hair thrives
In a dark, crappy world
Butthole hair thrives
Man up, get moving
Don’t you waste that breath
If it can survive that mess
So can you after this
