Jeans With Creases

Jeans with creases

There’s something really strange
About jeans with creases,
Worn by middle aged husbands
On pub releases.

All polished up and dusted down
By their dutiful mousewives,
Trying to prove that they are
Meticulous housewives.

The husbands are sent out
For a night with the boys
To drink lots of beer
And make lots of noise.

The audience of pubgoers
Really don’t care,
They don’t give a damn about
What the husbands wear.

Still, the husbands attend dutifully
Wearing jeans with creases,
Happy that they’re allowed out
On pub releases.
