In John F Weldon's "The Girl in the Very Tight Hat", the lyric goes

... I like a girl in a very tight hat. (A very tight what?) No, a very tight hat. ...

It took a while (years really) to realize the answer to the question was not "hat",
but "No".

(There is a mudcat thread (#73389) about the song, but not the question.)
