Under Where ?

When did it become OK for underwear to show
It never used to be that way, that much I do know
Before you left the house, you carefully checked each strap
Cause if your bra was showing, it would cause quite a flap
But now, wearing a black tank, with white straps on the side
Is perfectly acceptable, I guess we’ve turned the tide


After all, it is called underwear
And that means it is under there
Under all your outer wear
Yet now it is OK to bare
Bra straps or the top of a thong
To me, this is just wrong wrong wrong
I much prefer my underwear, under and out of sight
Especially if the shirt is black, and the straps that show are white

Once it was sexy to have a bit of mystery
But now they let it all hang out
And modesty is history
Revealing lots of flesh is in
And I, of course, am out
But still I’m left wondering
What that bra strap thing’s about

The strappy look isn’t attractive to see
At least that’s how it seems to me
Of course, I know it could be worse
But let’s save the braless look for a different verse
