Funny Hat - Stephen Fretwell

That creepy guy gave me your hat

Right before you arrived in my room

You know you shouldn’t ever look at anyone like that

You know you’re not that great when you drink in the afternoon

Now I wouldn’t want to chance anything

It’s far too early in the morning

I should probably eat and you should probably sleep

I think that banging on the walls is a warning

I heard your brand new song

On the radio

And it made me remember

Why I love you so

And the bit about the summer

Well I know what you mean

It’s funny because I saw your sister on TV

She’s nearly as famous as you now I see

Singing of that all inclusive in Spain

Washing her hair in the warm rain

And all the nuns are out

Parading the square

The bells are ringing

There’s a crack in the grain of the chair

And the mess on the floor

Reminds me of last night

I told the doorman that you were my wife

As he picked me up and threw me outside

Well that Kafkan guy had it coming from the start

It’s all coming back so heavy every part

Does this make any sense?

Are you getting the gist?

There’s no other way to reach you

Since on being apart you insist

I’m sure you won’t hear mine

The way that I heard yours
