Who would 'a thunk you could write a song on this subject?
Well, I guess you did and it's a winner!

Sounds like you've got a whole new genre happening here - sartorial satire.  Keep up the good work.

Hey Rob ...
A pretty cool song. Just another bit of proof that no subject is too far-fetched for a song lyric. I always enjoy your posts ... no exception here! Take care ...

Rob,
I thought Paisley was cool; no doubt I`d strike out with this gal, but you deserve better luck coming up with fun lines like these.
A well written and sung entry in the fashion of Rob!

Rob,
strange tune, but performed and produced very well. I guess, If I did not understand lyrics, I could of imagined absolutely anything. Thank you for reminding that good tunes, not necessarily have to bear deep meaning. Speaking of bears... I still think your skinning bear tune gets the creative ambiguity prize. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Love the title and story.
I was wondering if I needed white shoes when I move to Qld in a couple of months.
I don't think I can go the sandals & socks though...maybe slippers?
Really fun song Robert.
Good arrangement and memorable melody.
Cheers
