Not Quite a Match

I once met a girl wearing fuzzy socks
Overtop she wore those polka-dot crocs
She was hardly a catch
For me not quite a match
Although I did like her pretty blue frocks.

Well, Lindsay, considering I was completely turned off by her socks and crocs, we never quite got that far!!! LOL
