A transformation song of extremely limited usefulness... - robkelk - 09-30-2008

I don't like being worn,
That's all I've been since I was born,
A toenail cuts like a knife,
It's a sad sock's life

I don't wanna be stuffed in a drawer
Or stuck in somebody's shoe any more
I don't want a sweaty foot in me
I just want to be free, free, free.

Just let me run with the wild hose,
Where pens and pencils and the car keys go,
I want to dance at the free sock hop
I want to be a gypsy sock
I want to be a gypsy sock

I don't want to be part of a pair,
Or in the wash with all that underwear
Or tickled by somebody's toes,
Or made to walk where socks don't like to go

Like hanging from a line by my heel
Or getting darned, I hate the way that feels
Or getting stretched across a knobby knee
I just want to be free, free, free

I'll run with the wild hose,
Where pens and pencils and the car keys go,
I want to dance at the free sock hop
I want to be a gypsy sock
I want to be a gypsy sock

Gypsy sock, gypsy sock, I want to be a Gypsy sock.

Someday soon I'll take my chance
And I'll hide inside a pair of pants
When they open up the dryer door
I'll escape across the laundry floor

Then I'll be out on the street
Not attached to a pair of feet
Free as the nose that blows
I will be free to go

Where I'll run with the wild hose,
Where pens and pencils and the car keys go,
I'll dance at the free sock hop
I will be a gypsy sock
I will be a gypsy sock
I will be-e-e a gypsy sock

-- James Gordon, Gypsy Sock, from the album http://www.sentex.net/~gormorse/cdsfk.html]Songs For Kids

Transforms Doug into a sock, for the duration of the song.

"Why?" Hasn't Doug always wondered where lost socks go? Now's his chance to find out!

(Yes, it's an even more useless transformation than Disco Duck...)

I dunno... then again any power is only useless in the minds of the beholder. It would make great camoflauge for hiding from a guard in, oh, say a locker room
for example.

The problem with such transformation songs is that they would affect Doug's helmet, making the music stop and the change to be over.

Not necessarily.

"How the hell did I do that?!"

How so? I mean, Ray of Light turns Doug, helmet and all into a ray of light without interupting the playback....

And "Eye of the Tiger" turns him similarly into a Siberian Tiger... No, that's not really a problem.

And Lurker, you beat me to ARGH!-yle. (By 14 months yet. Darn.)

Oh, and the sock transform is just goofy enough to be cool.
