I've never really noticed ties                                                              
Unt­il that day I  saw those eyes  
                                                          ­      
See there are many kinds of ties   
with many different kinds of knots                                           
But some are worn to mask the eyes                                        
With slight-of-hand of wicked plots                                                

The worst I think, are clip-on ties              
Especially when it comes to bows                                    
Because the collar thinks it'll trick our eyes                          
From how far the sale of clip-ons go

Special colours, of Special ties     
don't fool those with Special eyes        
I see past the clip-on bow and suspenders     
And I hope I be proven wrong about his clip-on smile...

To cut a long story short, I wouldn't want him to be my neighbour...
I'm with Donnie on this one...
