4:22(Yeah) (Here we go!) I’m on my way and everyone is staring There’s a skip in my step and the crowd’s fanfarin’ ‘Cause I’m wearin’ a new hat (a new hat) They’ve all come to see my ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-hat Take a note that today is the day That we all gathered round to sing some praise For me and my new hat (a new hat) We all dropped our work and clapped for this new hat The fears of a head so cold I’ll never know, my head’s not exposed There were tears in my eyes When I found this hat I cried And now that hat is mine (Here we go!) (Hat, hat) (x3) (HAT) Stop the presses, it’s the news of the decade They’re closin’ the streets down and havin’ a parade Because I have a new hat (a new hat) The crowd cheers and sings for this ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-hat Cancel your birthday party and gather round My hat and I are here and we’re gonna paint this town Make way for my great hat (a great hat) We all love hats and this hat is where it’s at I can’t go a day Without a swarm of people headed my way They all stop to say, “I hope to… Have a hat as fine someday!” But yeah that hat is mine Look at how amazing it be I should charge an admittance fee (a pretty penny) When I’m scrap and buried, remember me (remember the hat please) For my exquisite taste in millinery Because I got a new hat (One more time!) (Hat, hat) (x3) (HAT) (Hat) (Man I really love hats!)
