How dare you!
Leaving me to hang out the washing
Only for it to be full of socks
I don't mind a few
But this is 90% sock
And as they come in pairs that's like 180%
I don't mind the bigger items
Two pegs, bang, bang and they're up
But socks, each one needs to be done separately
There's like a hundred of them
Do you know how long that takes?
I feel like I've run a marathon
The amount of times I've been back to the washing basket
And every time I pick something up
About ten socks appear out of nowhere
As if the sock magician is hiding in these clothes
I'm running out of pegs now
Each dainty little sock needs its own
I have to dig to the bottom of the peg bag
Finding those we bought twenty years ago
The rubbish plastic ones that keep snapping
I mean, have you seen the washing line?
The peg to space ratio is ridiculous
There's almost more peg than material on there
Right, that's it, socks are banned from this household
We'll just have to have hard skin on our feet
Or trainers that really stinks
Seriously, how dare you!
That many socks in one wash
