Green Eggs and Hair (reprise)

  Piece of Art                People
  (Hair ball)
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------
  I am art.
  I'm made of hair.
                        That piece of art
                        That ball of hair
                        I do not like
                        That ball of hair.
  Would you like me in
  Lobdell?
                        I would not like you
                          in Lobdell
                        I do not want you
                          if you smell.
                        I do not want you
                          so you see,
                        I do not want you
                          over me.
  Would you like me
  where you eat?
                        I would not like you
                          where I eat.
                        I do not want you
                          on my meat.
                        I do not want a ball of hair.
                        I do not want you anywhere!
  Would you like me
  as a hat?
                        I do not want a
                          shaman's hat.
                        No supersitition--
                        Nothing like that.
                        I do not want you so you see.
                        I do not want you at MIT.

  Would you like me in
    your atrium?
                        In our atrium?
                        How could you dare?
                        You'll block the light
                        With your hair.

 Fine.  Fine.
  Your point is clear.
  You do not like me.
  So I hear.

  But I am art,
  And I will be.
  You will like me--
  You will see!

  (pause)

  Would you like me
    as a slide rule?
  Thin and clear,
    the engineer's tool?

                        Say!
                        I like a slide rule,
                        Thin and clear.
                        An object used
                        By the early engineer.
                        You're not superstitious,
                        You're not made of hairs.
                        And I do so like you
                        Over the stairs.

                        I do so like you.
                        And now I see,
                        That I would not mind you
                        At MIT!
