The tale of the whistling sock

Asleep in the bottom drawer
A place I now call home
I hear a voice call my name
"Sockie, Sockie" where are you 

I am here
I seem to yell
But my voice was muffled
By rolls of clothing hell

I listen to the frustrated grunts and growls
Doors slam 
The smell of brewed coffee
I guess it's early in the morning 

I try to stand 
Alas,held by the cuffs of clothes
A wretched ordeal 
That I could not foresee

Till I had an idea
So mad it's genius
I used my little lips 
And I began to whistle

Till at last it got to you
And then you brought me out
I'm here to rescue you Sockie
Was the last word you said
