The Song Challenge: Hey Mister -- Want A Little Extra Off The Sides? Women in the Quebec city of Laval suspected their husbands and boyfriends were getting a bit more than a shave and a haircut at a local hair salon. Apparently, they were right. Police arrested eight people at Le Salon Sex Symbol, where stylists (disrobed), performed exotic dances and talked dirty as they clipped clients' hair, said police spokesman Guy Lajeunesse. The 2-month-old undercover investigation started after several women called police worried that the hairdressers were offering their husbands and boyfriends sexual services. Customers of the 5-year-old business received haircuts from scantily-clad women who 'for more money' (Ed. well, did 'very' naughty things). Though erotic hair salons are legal if no touching takes place, police believe patrons at Le Salon Sex Symbol could (do more than 'touch'). "We found some hair on the ground," Lajeunesse said. "One of the men got his hair cut. They have a few clients who just go for that. It's supposed to be the main attraction."

(Tune: Lulu Had A Baby)

Bradypus' Comments: I don't know if I dare - this is a new genre for me! The tune is 'Lulu had a Baby'. If you don't know the original, I hope this still works. I checked Digitrad for Lulu, and the best it came up with was another song described as having a similar tune to 'Lulu had a Baby'. Make of that what you will. The song takes the advertising jingle approach - but perhaps takes it a bit too far ???

Come to the Salon Sex Symbol
We'll not let you down
For hair styling and other things
The hottest place in town
Come and meet our stylists
The finest in the land
And if you're frustrated
They'll give you a

Handsome haircut, square across the back
Salon Sex Symbol's the place
Not a run down shack.

Come and have a haircut
And other things beside
Come and watch a film with us
Just come for the ride
Lovely girls, all of them
All polite, not rude
For a few bucks extra
They'll trim you in the

New designer fashion clothes they wear
Quite the finest show in town
When they're cutting hair.

Come and take a cabin
Come and watch them dance
Such delightful girls
We're sure they will entrance
Pay a few bucks extra
And if you're in luck
Extra services they'll give –
You can have a

Face wash, beard trim, shampoo and blow dry
Everything to make you smile, not to make you cry
Hey there! Say there! How's about a kiss
Hey there! Say there! That's the end of this!
