[VERSE 1]
ARCHIBALD One d[E]ay while he was waiting for the trolley
He had a h[E]at
LARRY My high silk h[E]at
ARCHIBALD He w[E]ore it high upon his head so proudly
A beautiful h[E]at
LARRY My high silk hat
ARCHIBALD A [G#m]hat, like this just makes him feel so grandly
Now fancy this, and fancy that
The sp[B]lendor of his hat in all its majesty
LARRY Like a king, in a royal cap!

[CHORUS]
I f[B]eel so swell and handsome in my hat
I bet that others wish they had in f[E]act
BOTH A hat as [G#m/D#]this, a hat as [C#m]that,
A hat so [Caug]fine, a high silk [C#m]hat… [E/B]
(LARRY) Oh [A]Mr. Art Big[B]otti, now what do you think of th[E]at?

[E]
(Bum bum-ba-da-bum-bum bum-ba-da-bum-bum bum-ba-da-bum-bum)

[VERSE 2]
ARCHIBALD Now his h[E]at was not all he wore so proudly
I must in f[E]act, share more than that
For up[E]on his lap there sat a treat so fondly
Of chocolate t[E]his
LARRY And chocolate that
ARCHIBALD Del[G#m]iciousness that makes him feel so dandy
A chocolate b[G#m]liss
LARRY A chocolate snack
CHOIR Con[B]fections such as these are more than candy
Somewhat like life, a box of that

[CHORUS 2]
LARRY I h[B]ave my chocolate placed upon my lap
I feel so good you just cannot top t[E]hat
I have my [G#m/D#]snack, a chocol[C#m]ate pack,
Of chocolate [Caug]this and chocolate [C#m]that… [E/B]
Oh go[A]lly Mr. N[B]ezzer, now what do you think of [E]that?

[E] [F]

[VERSE 3]
ARCHIBALD Now t[F]ime was passing and the sun grew hotter
Upon his h[F]at
CHOIR And chocolate sn[F]ack
ARCHIBALD So ben[F]eath his hat he thought and pondered.
LARRY What should I do, to save my hat?
ARCHIBALD He t[Am]hought, and contemplated as he perspired
Beneath his [Am]hat
CHOIR Upon his lap
ARCHIBALD He f[C]eared his chocolate treats would soon retire
Into a p[C]ool
CHOIR A chocolate vat

[CHORUS 3]
LARRY I w[C]on’t feel grand if I take off my hat
The sun's gettin' hot and my hat just might go f[F]lat.
My [Am/E]hat, it might go [Dm]flat,
And my [C#aug]sweets will melt like t[Dm]hat… [F/B]
Oh h[A#]urry Mr. T[C]rolley before my dapperness goes fl[F]at
[F]
(Bum bum-ba-da-bum-bum bum-ba-da-bum-bum bum-ba-da-bum-bum)

[VERSE 4]
ARCHIBALD He dec[F]ided to forego his looks so dashing
To save his h[F]at
PEA And little s[F]nack!
ARCHIBALD So he p[F]laced the treats upon the seat beside him
NEZZER And placed his hat on top of that
LARRY Oh p[Am]lease (Oh please, Oh please)
Don’t anyb[Am]ody, sit close to me (sit close to me)
Upon my hat (upon my hat)
I a[C]sk, if all of you could be so kindly
And just stand b[C]ack
Away from my snack!

[FINAL CHORUS]
A gr[C]eat big squash just sat upon my hat!
A great big squash just squished my hat real f[F]lat!
He squashed my[Am/E] hat, he made it [Dm]flat,
He squished my [C#aug]snack, oh what of [Dm]that [F/B]
Oh t[A#]ell me anyb[C]ody now what do you think of t[F]hat?

CROWD
A gr[C]eat big squash just sat upon his hat!
A great big enormous squash squished his hat real f[F]lat!
He squashed his[Am/E] hat, he made it [Dm]flat,
He squished his [C#aug]snack, oh what of t[Dm]hat!....

(Trolley comes "ding ding")

LARRY N.C
Oh golly… uh… what is your name?
SCALLION N.C
They’ve never given me a name.
I've been around since show one and I still don't have a name.

LARRY [A#] [C] Now what do you think of t[F]hat?
