My gym socks sometimes smell like cheesies



My gym socks sometimes smells like cheesies
For this I can't quite understand
Although I've eaten a pile of crap
I never  ever eaten them
Okay you've got me so I have
But it's been at least some 15 years
Since those little  hydrogenated trophies Have danced across this palate here
So if I crushed a gazillion cheesies
Then grape crush stomped  a billion more
Or even if those cheesie  socks
Hung out in a glass case at the art museum for 20 years
I have my doubts that my gym socks would actually still smell like cheesies
But then how is it that they will
I know for sure that everybody has at least one something that they draw some comfort from, whether it be  wetting your thumb and corner  dabbing the bag of rice cake minis
To that shirt that has a hundred holes to the fedora that smells like your grandpa's house
I guess this is what makes us all unequal and as for the rest of us
A trifle bit Oblivious
My gym socks sometime smell like cheesies
