Socks and Scarves

Sometimes I will wonder
What I’ll miss the most
When I’m far from here
When I’ve become a ghost
What could be so special?
It would top my list
Who’s this awesome girl?
That I would surely miss

And then it came to me
So clearly in a dream
What I’d really miss were…

Socks and scarves they keep me warm
When everything’s gone cold
Sock and scarves they’ll still be here
When all the girls are old
I’m not cool – that I know
‘Cause I love socks and scarves
In the night I wonder why
But that I guess is life

Maybe I’m a muppet
Maybe I’m a fool
But how can things compare
Socks and scarves are so old school
I used to stay up late
Playing 60’s games
I am such a nerd
But please no funny names

Again it came to me
But this time on a screen
What I’d really miss were…
