Most hobbits don't wear socks, but there is a small group of rascals calling themselves such. Here is a song for them adventurous Socks!
Best sung to the tune of House of Fun by Madness, this is a song stunt-written during the 2013 Second Breakfast party, hosted by the Socks. Us Badgers were there, somehow we got word that one of the Socks hobbits really liked this tune, and we had it in our songbook already.
The problem? We didn't have any lyrics. Enter 25 minutes of forced emergency rhyming, desperately trying to keep up with the wicked and wild line changes of the song. The result is below.
Being very much a song written for those rascally sock hobbits, it likely won't make sense for anyone not knowing them. I don't think the Socks mind, though. Enjoy! Roll the sausage!
