This is “Pancake Hat” the eighth song from Vanilla’s “Pish Posh” collection. It’s song about pancakes, cats and hats, weasels, bubble wrap … I could go on, but it’s probably best to just let it wash over you and for you decide for yourself. As somebody notable once said, “nothing is real.” It's time to doff the Pancake Hat!
lyrics
Hurly burly, chew the fat
Time to doff the pancake hat
The pancake hat
Double trouble, bubble wrap
Time to tip the pancake hat
The pancake hat
To Elysian Fields I climb
And watch the fruit die on the vine
In summer splendor they decline
They never reach the finish line
Ring the weasel, skin the cat
Time to pass the pancake hat
The pancake hat
The pancake hat
