My Hat Here's my hat. It holds my head, the thoughts I've had Top Hat The Top Hat is the king of hats The toppest of them all And when you put one on your noggin Even when you're jumping and jogging The Top Hat won't fall   Don't be bowled over by the Bowler Don't get in a flap about the Cap Because I've seen it all with the Baseball And you don't seem like a Ten Gallon chap Don't get fed up with the Fedora The Fez will just look like a mess I'm not a fan-a-ma of the Panama The Top Hat is the one that fits best Don't mess up your hair cut with a helmet Don't be a hero and wear a sombrero Don't think you're urban by wearing a turban Without a Top Hat you'll just be a zero So spare a thought for your head and your hair And sport some classy headwear Choose the right hat And don't come a'cropper Because only a Top Hat Will look more proper than proper. My Hat Here's my hat. It holds my head, the thoughts I've had and the things I've read. It keeps out the wind. It keeps off the rain. It hugs my hair and warms my brain. There's me below it, the sky above it. It's my lid. And I love it. Tony Mitton
