The Lyrics

Just don't fall asleep at Laundry Land...that's all I'm saying...
I...had to get laundry done
Even though it's not fun
Walked down...the street
And threw a load in

I...I was so sleepy
Stayed up far too late, you see
And I woke...to find
That my clothing had left me

I fell asleep with some Tide for a headrest
I'm filled with regrets
I found when I came to

Somebody stole my sweater
Three loads were mixed together
Somebody stole my sweater
What should I do?

Whoa-oh-oh

Although my whites are brighter
My basket is somewhat lighter
Somebody stole my sweater
What can I do?

It...it was soft, baby blue
And it was my favorite, too
I had worn...it when
I met my boyfriend

And I...lost more than just a cardigan
Some pants I'd borrowed from a friend
Who I...had just told
I'd return them today

I never thought that somebody would snake them
Who would just take them?
What can a girl do?

Somebody stole my sweater
Wool socks for colder weather
Somebody stole my sweater
What should I do?

Whoa-oh-oh

Although my whites are brighter
My basket is so much lighter
Somebody stole my sweater
What can I do?

(instrumental)

I think I just saw a bum in my new skirt
And Frodo T-shirt
There's nothing I can do

Somebody stole my sweater
Undies and sweat pants together
Somebody stole my sweater
What should I do?

Whoa-oh-oh

Although my whites are brighter
My basket is ten times lighter
Somebody stole my sweater
What can I do?

I like your words better than the original... and they're funnier! Too bad about your sweater (and the bum in your skirt!).

DKTOS, but I'm tempted to give you 5's just for the couplet " Although my whites are brighter My basket is somewhat lighter " Fun read, and I'll try to find the original song when I can.

DKTOS either, but shouldn´t this be "Somebody stole my preciousssss..." coming from you? :-)

Well...thanks for the comments! Even without votes! While I'll admit that the true Air Supply fan is a rare find these days...I didn't think the song was as obscure as it has turned out to be....oh well...=) 2nz...I have to confess that I was tickled with myself when I came up with the passage you mentioned...thanks for recognizing my brilliance...; ) And Know 1...I do feel a certain void considering how long it's been since I penned an LOTR parody...your little nudge may be just the thing to get my creative juices flowing...cross your fingers!!

I'm not sure this fits the subject. What does this song have to do with clothing?
