<br>

[[George]]<br>

Mademoiselles...<br>

You end me, pal...<br>

Second bottle...<br>

Ah, she looks for me...<br>

Bonnet flapping...<br>

Yapping...<br>

Ruff!...<br>

Chicken...<br>

Pastry...<br>

Yes, she looks for me-good.<br>

Let her look for me to tell me why she left me-<br>

As I always knew she would.<br>

I had thought she understood.<br>

They have never understood,<br>

And no reason that they should.<br>

But if anybody could...<br>

Finishing the hat,<br>

How you have to finish the hat.<br>

How you watch the rest of the world<br>

From a window<br>

While you finish the hat.<br>

<br>

Mapping out a sky.<br>

What you feel like, planning a sky.<br>

What you feel when voices that come<br>

Through the window<br>

Go<br>

Until they distance and die,<br>

Until there's nothing but sky<br>

And how you're always turning back too late<br>

From the grass or the stick<br>

Or the dog or the light,<br>

How the kind of woman willing to wait's<br>

Not the kind that you want to find waiting<br>

To return you to the night,<br>

Dizzy from the height,<br>

Coming from the hat,<br>

Studying the hat,<br>

Entering the world of the hat,<br>

Reaching through the world of the hat<br>

Like a window,<br>

Back to this one from that.<br>

<br>

Studying a face,<br>

Stepping back to look at a face<br>

Leaves a little space in the way like a window,<br>

But to see-<br>

It's the only way to see.<br>

<br>

And when the woman that you wanted goes,<br>

You can say to yourself, "Well, I give what I give."<br>

But the women who won't wait for you knows<br>

That, however you live,<br>

There's a part of you always standing by,<br>

Mapping out the sky,<br>

Finishing a hat...<br>

Starting on a hat..<br>

Finishing a hat...<br>

Look, I made a hat...<br>

Where there never was a hat<br>

<br>

<br>
