SOMEBODY'S DRAWER

We know we're not the most important part of one's attire
You may not even notice if we vanish in the dryer
You came here from a retail store
But now you need to learn the score
How can you reach your zenith when you're stuck on someone's feet?
But life is sweet,
Because we are surrounded by our loved ones in somebody's drawer

We're partly polyester, but we're mostly made of cotton
We hope that you will love us and we'll never be forgotten
We're waiting for our day to come
But also as a rule of thumb
We don't presume to think we know what life is all about
One day we'll shout!
Because we are surrounded by our loved ones in somebody's drawer

Think of me
Like family
STRIPES: Except for me, I'm skeptical of every one I meet
It's no hoax [We're just]
honest folks
We're modest but I think we're pretty neat

Some people overlook us like we're mild diarrhea
They never check the tag that says we're made in South Korea
We know we need to prove our worth
But like a natural childbirth
It's painful and it's messy and you wish you took some drugs
But we've got hugs!
Because we are surrounded by our loved ones in somebody's drawer
Because we are surrounded by our loved ones in somebody's drawer
