Ani Difranco - Hat Shaped Hat Lyrics
In walked a man in the shape of a manHolding a hat-shaped hatHe held up two fingers and said how many fingers?And I said peace man, thats where its atI said you are what you do in order toPrevent becoming what youre busy not doingAnd if you do do it trulyThen you arrive at it newlyThen in the end you are absolvedAnd the problem of heaven is solvedAnd the man broke into a smile,Like he was breaking into a songAnd he was broken and smilingAnd I was singing alongAnd we agreed completely agreetly about most thingstil the sun set sweetlyLike it does in those paintingsThe ones they hang in hotel roomsThe ones they bolt to the wallAs though anyone would want to steal them at allWe talked like children without breathingtil I stopped this lady as she was leavingAnd I said excuse me,But do you know what time it would beIf we were on mars ?And she held up her handLike a crossing guard stopping the carsAnd she saidFive in the morningIn walked a manIn the shape of a manHolding a hat shaped hat
