wonders about missing socks, celebrating their escape from us or grieving for lost mate?
Do you ever wonder
If perhaps you made a blunder
When putting socks in the dryer
Cause even though  you're positive you put in a pair
Seems like you're playing sock solitaire
To your utter despair!
Cause only single socks come out
Even though you know without a doubt
You had put in six pairs or thereabout.

Do you think they go to a far-away land
Where they form a single-sock party band,
Celebrating their escape from human owners
Now that they're single sock loners!
Or perhaps they're grieving for a lost mate.
Pray tell, what do you think is their fate?
