Cub Scouts Don’t Wear No Socks

Lyrics

Cub Scouts don’t wear no socks.
Saw them when they took them off.
Threw them in the washing machine.
That’s how the laundry all turned green.

Cub Scouts don’t wear no socks.
Saw them when they took them off.
Threw them in the garbage can.
Killed three rats and the garbageman.

Cub Scouts don’t wear no socks.
Saw them when they took them off.
Threw them up into the air.
That’s why the birds need Medicare.

Cub Scouts don’t wear no socks.
Saw them when they took them off.
Threw them on the President’s desk.
That’s why the country’s such a mess.

Cub Scouts don’t wear no socks.
Saw them when they took them off.

Actions

Generally sung as a marching song, with the scouts echoing each line after a leader sings it.
