Hat (Asylum)

I really must confess
I was a complete mess
I had no drive or aim
Left well behind the game

Sought out of this nightmare
Sought things to cover my hair
I wanted life of the type
Who'd wear a hat like a pipe

Cos my lum hat
Is my asylum hat
As my lum hat's
My asylum hat
Asylum hat

Defeated personal hell
And gained the air of Brunel
I want to put away hate
I only want to create

Connecting people by rail
Aspiring never to fail
To meet the challenge of maths
And spending my sponsor's cash

Cos my lum hat
Is my asylum hat
As my lum hat's
My asylum hat
Asylum hat

World number one engineer
Both over there and round here
To use the strength of the arch
And bringing light to the dark

A tunnel built to your heart
Marriage of science and art
Through air and under the ground
You see that we get around

Cos my lum hat
Is my asylum hat
As my lum hat's
My asylum hat
Asylum hat
