Pepperhat from Ontario II by Noon Tangent

Head down, she's gotta get to work
Is coffee ready? 12 cups to go
Head down, she's almost late for work
The traffic report's doom and gloom

But there in the corner of the room
Waits a red pepper hat
And it is ready to go out on the town
But she don't know where it came from
She won't give it away, no!
She's the devil's plaything

Wait 'til tonight

Head down, she's getting through the day
The reports are done. There’s nothing left
Head down, she's almost through the day
There's talk of OT - she's out the door

'Cause it's time
She's hittin' the road
She's gonna beat all the red lights
'Cause the party's begun
It's time to go
She slips in her red sequin dress with supple lines
And she will sparkle under the pepperhat

And they won't see her coming tonight
Everyone will fall in love with her tonight

Don't let that woman near your bed
The pepperhat will take your head
The devil's calling, he says,
"The pepperhat is a part of her!
You can't resist 'cause there ain't no cure!
Sex sells and the buyin's good!"

Head down, another day at work
She can't think clearly without the hat
Head down, she's giving up on work
She's out the door, it's time to go

'Cause she can hear the hat's voice
Ringin' between her ears and it is begging her for
More
She slips in her red sequin dress with supple lines
And she will sparkle under the pepperhat

And they won't see her coming tonight
Everyone will fall in love with her tonight

Looks like you let her into your heart
And just when the fun's about to start
The devil calls in, and he says,
"The pepperhat is a part of her!
You can't resist 'cause there ain't no cure!
Sex sells and the buyin's good!"

They won't see her coming tonight
Everyone will fall in love with her tonight

This is how you're gonna meet your end
Red bell peppers and red sequins
The devil's calling, he says,
"The pepperhat is a part of her!
You can't resist 'cause there ain't no cure!
Said the pepperhat is a part of her!
You can't resist 'cause there ain't no cure!
Sex sells and the buyin's good!
Sex sells and the buyin’s good!
Fuckin' sex sells and the buyin's good!”
