Lyrics:

One day a funny kind of man
Came walking down the street
He wore a shoe upon his head
And hats upon his feet

He raised the shoe and smiled at me
His manners were polite
But never had I seen before
Such a funny sounding sight

He said, 'Allow me to present
Your Highness with a rose'
And taking out a currant bun
He held it to my nose

I staggered back against the wall
And then I answered, 'Well
I never saw a rose with such
A funny looking smell'

He then began to sing a song
'Hmm, mm, mm, mm, mm'
And sat down on the ground
You never heard in all your life
Such a funny feeling sound

'My friend, why do you wear two hats
Upon your feet?', I said
He turned the other way about
And hopped home on his head
