Steely Dan - Hat Too Flat Lyrics
We come in on the morning scanAll the way from far arcturusBringing with us peace and good willFrom the margins of space and timeOur women are slung down low to the groundTheyre very good youve probably had oneOur men are brave, studly and wise,A pleasure to beholdRight away we walk the walkMore or less we talk the talkBut every time we make our playTheir eyes get wide they run awaycause the hat stays too flatMy hat is way too flatMy english she is much better nowBut my hat remains too flatThe man smells a ratAnd thats the end of thatMy english it is more better nowBut my hat is still too flatFair arcturus fashion forecast:Skirts will be shorterLegs stay longVirtual raincoats are coming backHats as always continued flatBack at home the machines work hardWe folk like to take it easyHoning our awareness ofThe finer things of lifeHere when I go down to my jobI work hard for what seems like a long timeI look at my watch: fifteen minutesIt felt like half a day!Soon enough we break for lunchMe and the boys now Im one of the bunchBut no one wants to sit with meSo tell me what can the matter be?The hat stays too flatMy hat is way too flatMy english she is much better nowBut the hat is just too flatA little thing like thatThey dont get past the hatMy english it is more better nowBut my hat remains too flat
