Fashion Ins and Outs

This fashion is in, that one is out
    narrow waists with baggy knees
  Wide lapels and razor-thin ties
    Who knows what will be

  Slicked-back ducktails 
    top off muscle t-shirts
  hoping to attract
    coy smiles from a skirt

  My friend and I dress real dumb
    bowling shirts plugging Bazooka-Joe gum
  The girls see us, giggle, and flee
    Who knows what will be

What an unfashionable sight to see. Girls decorated like Christmas trees.
