Wear My Hat Lyrics


Well he came looking for me with her arms open wide
Like some long lost friend of mine
She said, "Excuse me, but do you remember me?"
I said, "No, I don't believe I do"
So she looked me up and down
And undressed me with her eyes
Then she said, "You've got everything I need
You got everything I want", so I said, "Okay"
"You can wear my hat, you can have my coat
You can take my shirt 'cos I don't need it
You can wear my shoes, you can take my socks
Come on take my bag, it's yours"
"If you love it
You can have it if you love it
Ain't no problem if you love it
Come on take it if you love it"
So her friend came up to me with a pen and paper in her hand
Expressing some interest in the number of my room

She said, "Excuse me, but do you remember me?"
I said, "No", she said, "Can I appeal to you?"
So I looked her up and down
And realizing her insinuations I blushed
She said, "Listen babe, you don't know me
No, you don't know me but you owe me"
"And I love you, yes, I love you
Put your arms around me 'cos I love you
And I got all your records and I love you"
So I suggested
"You can wear my hat, you can have my coat
You can take my shirt 'cos I don't need it
You can wear my shoes, you can take my socks
Come on take my bag, it's yours"
"If you love it
Well you can have it if you love it
I got no problem if you love it
Come on take it if you love it, love it
Come on love it"
Well later on that day this guy came to me
With a scrap of paper in his hand
He said, 'Hey buddy, can you sign your name for me?"
I said, "Why, do I owe you money?" he said, "No"
I said, "Listen pal do I know you? Have we ever met?
Why do you want my name on this little piece of paper?
He said, "I love you, I don't know you but I love you
Like my brother I love you put your arms around me 'cos I love you"
I said, "Hey let's not rush things"
"You can wear my hat, you can have my coat
You can take my shirt 'cos I don't need it
You can wear my shoes, you can take my socks
Come on take my bag, it's yours"
"If you love it
You can have it if you love it
Ain't no problem if you love it
Come on take it if you love it, love it
Come on love it"
Ain't no problem for me if you want it
Take my hat, take my bag, I don't need nothing
You can wear my hat, you can wear my hat
Come on, wear my hat, wear my hat
You can wear my hat, come on, wear my hat
You can wear my hat, come on, wear my hat
You can take anything you want
Take my bag, it's yours
You can wear my hat, you can wear my hat
Come on, wear my hat, you can wear my hat
Wear my hat, wear my hat
Come on, wear my hat, come on, wear my hat

Philip David Charles "Phil" Collins LVO (born 30 January 1951 in Chiswick, London) is an English singer-songwriter, drummer, keyboardist and actor best known as a drummer and vocalist for English progressive rock group Genesis and as a Grammy and Academy Award-winning solo artist.

Collins sang the lead vocals on eight American chart-toppers between 1984 and 1989; seven as a solo artist and one with Genesis. His singles, often dealing with lost love, ranged from the atmospheric In the Air Tonight, to the dance pop of Sussudio, to the political statements of his most successful song, "Another Day in Paradise". His international popularity transformed Genesis from a progressive rock group to a regular on the pop charts and an early MTV mainstay. According to britishhitsongwriters.com he is the forty-eighth most successful songwriter in U.K. singles chart history based on weeks that his compositions have spent on the chart.

Collins' professional career began as a drummer, first with obscure rock group Flaming Youth and then more famously with Genesis. In Genesis, Collins originally supplied backing vocals for front man Peter Gabriel, singing lead on only two songs: "For Absent Friends" from 1971's Nursery Cryme album and "More Fool Me" from Selling England by the Pound, which was released in 1973. On Gabriel's departure in 1975, Collins became the group's lead singer. As the decade closed, Genesis' first international hit, "Follow You, Follow Me", demonstrated a drastic change from the band's early years.

His concurrent solo career, heavily influenced by his personal life, brought both him and Genesis commercial success. According to Atlantic Records, Collins' total worldwide sales as a solo artist, as of 2002, were 150 million.

Phil Collins, announced in March 2011 that he is retiring from the music business. "I am stopping so I can be a full time father to my two young sons on a daily basis," Phil Collins wrote on his website. He refers to his two sons, Nicholas and Matthew, with his third wife Orianne Cevey, whom he divorced in 2008.
