Sand flows much too quickly in that goldarn hour glass
I'm no spring chicken, but I'll have to take a pass
If a guy thinks he rocks
Wearing fuzzy socks and crocs
That nerdy look is just too dorky for this lass
I've had lots of men flirt with me throughout the years
But one dressed like that and I'd be laughing with tears
He'd make an impression
And from my expression
He'd be very embarrassed by guffawing jeers
There's a rumor about Batman going around
When he saw Robin wearing socks and crocs in town
He swatted him with a "ZONK!"
"Why are ya dressed like a punk?"
"Take those hideous things off or you're going down!!"
I've always admired a man who has self respect
One who dresses with class and style, I'd not reject
I'd call him a silver fox
In well-shined shoes, he walks
But in fuzzy socks and crocs, he'd look train wrecked!
Guys, if you want a lady's provocative glance
Invite her to dinner and then share a slow dance
But remember that your shoes
Will give her the helpful clues
She requires to let your flirting lead to romance

I appreciate you asking me for a date
Would you believe you asked too late?
No? Well I have another excuse
A list of them that's quite profuse
I tripped and fell, breaking my nose
Now there's blood all over my clothes
I've absolutely nothing decent to wear
I haven't had time to wash my hair
I ate chocolate covered crickets
and that gave me goldarn rickets
I turned a shade of putrid green
so the doctor said I'm quarantined
Really, it's not that I don't wanna
but somehow I woke up in Tijuana
Perhaps at another time, maybe?
Right now I'm about to have a baby!
