Socks aren’t easy to wash
As tough as leathery alligators
Like wrestling with big snakes
Socks aren’t easy to wash
Tangled like weeds in the Sargasso sea
A steely wreckage of rusted U boats
Socks are swallowing socks
Into the wash they go
Never to be seen for years
Socks are a danger to the public
They turn up like killer sharks
And bite off your foot
