The Cake's song

Is there a song by a band "cake" about skirts and hats? --Yashowardhani (talk) 12:19, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

There's "Short Skirt/Long Jacket" by Cake, but it doesn't mention hats. I went through some of the stuff by the late 60s group The Cake as well, but couldn't find any songs about skirts or hats there. ---Sluzzelin talk 12:24, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

The title track of Comfort Eagle contains the line "You can dress up like a sultan in your onion head hat", if that helps. Tevildo (talk) 17:14, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

Determining film profit?

Is there a webpage I could use to determine how profitable an idea for a movie would be? Theskinnytypist (talk) 20:28, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

Not really, at least no better than using a random number generator. If it were that easy to determine whether or not a film would make profit then our page, list of box office bombs, would not exist. AJCham 20:33, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

Heck, thanks to Hollywood accounting it's not even that easy to determine the profit of actual films that have already been made and released. AJCham 20:35, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
