The Bearded Pledge

I pledge my life and my family's lives If I shave off this beard then take a knife to my wife Take a gun to my son and my two beardless mums You may slay me this day if I shave it away I live my life as a bearded man If you see me shave strike me down where I stand I will try to comply and I'll never ask why If I dare touch a hair may I never be spared Yes! I make this pledge Yes yes yes The bearded pledge And by this growth I will take an oath I swear I will go by the bearded code Spread the word I'll be heard I will not be deterred I'll be clear they will hear that I really like beards Defend my beard in every situation And I'll talk about beards in every conversation I'll be loud I'll be proud I'll be always devout If I'm not then you've got to have me killed on the spot Whoa! That's the bearded code Whoa-oh-oh The bearded code And yes I make this pledge Yes yes yes The bearded pledge I proclaim from this day to live the bearded way Have a beard all the time no matter what they say Shake the hand of a man who's in a bearded band I'll adhere all my years to having a beard Hey! That's the bearded way And whoa-oh-oh I'll live the bearded code And yes I will make this pledge Yes yes yes The bearded pledge
