The Tabby Turban

Verse 1

I hit the brake

Too late

The asphalt felt a sudden thud

Four paws

Caught in the tire treads

The gravel pit was red

I felt bad

For a minute

Chorus

He is a hat now

Jerry is a hat

He is a hat now

Jerry is a hat

Soft on your head

Warm in the winter

Jerry is a hat

Verse 2

I took him to the local taxidermist

The man had a heavy hand

He stitched the ears

He fixed the tail

The bill arrived by mail

I paid it

In cash

It looks good on you

Really

Chorus

He is a hat now

Jerry is a hat

He is a hat now

Jerry is a hat

Soft on your head

Warm in the winter

Jerry is a hat

Bridge

He doesn't shed on the rug

He doesn't scratch at the door

He doesn't hiss at the mailman

Not anymore

Not anymore

Not anymore

Guitar Solo

Verse 3

You look stylish

Stunning

Sophisticated

The tabby stripes match your coat

You said you wanted a keepsake

You said you wanted a memento

You said you wanted him close

Now he is

Chorus

He is a hat now

Jerry is a hat

He is a hat now

Jerry is a hat

Soft on your head

Warm in the winter

Jerry is a hat

Post-Chorus

Hat

Hat

Jerry hat

Jerry hat

Outro

I am sorry about your cat

But look at that brim

It fits you perfect

Yeah

It fits you perfect

Admit it

You look better now

Goodbye Jerry
