A good friend of mine in Tokyo tells me today:
re
"Pick up your hat
Close up your flat
Get out and get under the moon"
''MrDanBloom, I was 8 or 9 in Tokyo when I first listened to this song by Nat Cole. I didn't
understand what "flat" meant then. In 1960s, nobody around me did either.
Now we do. A giant step.''

When you're all alone, any old night,
And you're feeling mighty blue,
Pick up your hat, close up your flat,
Get out, get under the moon!

Underneath that bright, silvery light,
You'll be feeling better soon,
Pick up your hat, close up your flat,
Get out, get under the moon!
Da-da-da-da-da-da, walk, walk, kiss and then walk again,
And talk, talk, kiss and then talk again,
Oh, boy, sweethearts are all in June!

I mean it, when it's raining out, stay in your flat,
But on a lovely night in June,
Pick up your hat, close up your flat,
Get out, get under the moon!
