English and German tenses are very much alike. Except for English having 
the progressive forms, which do not exist in German (...ing form)

past perfect (started before the past, and usually either continuing 
into the past or having an effect lasting into the past / used with some 
other event in the past)   // Plusquamperfekt
had had  (had + verb in past)    //  hatte gehabt

past
had  // hatte

perfect (started in the past, still going on or having an effect still 
lasting)

have had  //  habe gehabt
has had (3rd person)

present
have // habe

and for a bit of fun (future perfect / future 2) conjunctive/subjunctive 
mood
causative

I would have had had it done
Würde es getan lassen haben

And if I - in a none nonsensical form - have somebody else possess a hat 
for me (future 2 / conjunctive):
I would have had had the hat had.

Now please, nobody is going to not tell me they didn't have no fun at 
all with this.
