Текст пісні
Oh, I was walking in the country
Being very careful where to tread
When suddenly I saw something weird
And my eyes nearly popped out my head
Did I see a giant mushroom?
Or a toad having trouble with a rat?
It may have been one of them Diddy Men
But I'm sure it was Cilla Black's hat
Cilla Black's hat
Was a quid plus that
Not sure about the size
Caught the nation by surprise
Cilla Black's hat
Was a quid plus that
After all's said and done
She's a lotta, lotta fun
Oh, the wind was up and gusting
Blew the apparition down the street
People stepped back in amazement
And threw her little bits of bread to eat
The police tried to apprehend it
And sent a riot wagon to the scene
The sergeant said to the constable
"Be careful, you don't know where it's been"
Cilla Black's hat
Was a quid plus that
Not sure about the size
Caught the nation by surprise
Cilla Black's hat
Was a quid plus that
After all's said and done
She's a lotta, lotta fun
Cilla arrived to retrieve it
Put it on without even a pause
The crowd were amazed and excited
And gave her a round of applause
Cilla put her hat on blind date
She said, "Come and see who you turned down"
A Busby and a Topper
The helmet off a copper
A bowler hat and even a crown
But the hat story had a nice ending
On the show it met Pete Catt
They formed a hat band, had two battle commas
And were happy ever after
Cilla Black's hat
Was a quid plus that
Not sure about the size
Caught the nation by surprise
Cilla Black's hat
Was a quid plus that
After all's said and done
She's a lotta, lotta fun
Cilla Black's hat
Was a quid plus that
Not sure about the size
Caught the nation by surprise
