Discover the story of the song > Nancy Got A Haircut – Alec Benjamin

The lyrics are about a girl named Nancy who got a haircut and now looks really nice. She walks with confidence and everyone is looking at her. People are jealous of her because she is pulling all the attention away from them. However, despite her popularity, nobody knows how hard Nancy's life is. Even though she may win sometimes, it is not easy for her and she has to do things that she may not like. The protagonist says that they wouldn't want to be Nancy because they think they would die if they had to go through what she goes through. In the end, the song repeats that nobody really knows what it's like to be Nancy and to be scrutinized like she is.
