The Lyrics
Underwhelmed and overdressed,
Got a gift certificate for Sport Chek at the mall,
No more suits or fancy vests,
Spend it all on sports gear; gym socks and basketballs...
The activewear section was exceptional to me,
Elasticated waistbands gave me flexibility!
I've just seen the practicality,
Of pant legs ending just above my knees,
My boss and spouse will not care for these,
But maybe I'll feel comfy playing sports,
When I buy new shorts!
Reforming how I bend,
Knee's where my pant leg ends!
Stretching when I'm at my desk,
Everybody tells me I should just go back to pants,
All complaining how I dress,
Yet they all keep staring and admiring my finesse.
Underwear'd be underdressed, with that I would agree.
These shorts were meant for everywhere; mean everything to me!
I can see the practicality,
Of pant legs ending just above my knees,
When both my shins feel a cool soft breeze,
No changing at the gym or tennis courts,
When I buy new shorts!
Reforming how I bend,
Knee's where my pant leg ends,
When I buy new shorts!
Got a gift certificate for Sport Chek at the mall,
