Hat on the Corner

Paroles

[Verse 1] The cat with the crooked hat walks down the alley, eyes on the streetlights, His tail flicks like a metronome, rhythm in every step he takes. People shout, “What’s that look?!” as he drifts past the neon glow, He’s got that swagger, but nobody knows where his story goes. [Pre‑Chorus] He’s got a mystery like a song that’s half‑heard, half‑seen, A rebel without a cause, a dream that’s still unseen. I’ll ask him why he wears that hat, what’s the secret that he keeps? Maybe it’s a warning, maybe it’s a promise that he’s keeping. [Chorus] Hat on the corner, that cat’s got his own rhythm, Slick like a midnight river, he’s the beat that keeps me livin’. When the city’s cold and the night is dim, I hear the purr of his mission, The cat in the hat, a story still untold, but it’s my confession. [Verse 2] He’s not a villain, not a thief, just a wanderer with a plan, He walks through crowded streets, a silent poem, a quiet fan. I hear the echo of his footsteps, they echo in my chest, He’s got a voice that whispers, “I’m alive, I’m not a ghost.” [Pre‑Chorus] When he pulls the hat away, a hint of starlight in his eyes, It’s a glimpse of a dream that’s been hiding in disguise. I’ll follow him through the city, past the neon lights so bright, We’ll write a story together, in the rhythm of the night. [Chorus] Hat on the corner, that cat’s got his own rhythm, Slick like a midnight river, he’s the beat that keeps me livin’. When the city’s cold and the night is dim, I hear the purr of his mission, The cat in the hat, a story still untold, but it’s my confession. [Bridge] There’s a place where the alley meets the sea of lights, a secret door, The cat’s hat falls, revealing a heart that’s pure. We’ll dance with the shadows, let the world fall away, In the rhythm of the night, we’re here to stay. [Chorus] Hat on the corner, that cat’s got his own rhythm, Slick like a midnight river, he’s the beat that keeps me livin’. When the city’s cold and the night is dim, I hear the purr of his mission, The cat in the hat, a story still untold, but it’s my confession. [Outro] So let the city hum, let the lights fade, but never let the rhythm die, Because the cat in the hat keeps walking, under the moonlit sky.
