Songs About Trousers


This is by far one of the weirdest yet most entertaining set of songs I've posted in quite some time. Maybe because these are exactly what they purport to be: Songs About Trousers. Which is a far superior word for leg coverings than the mundane designation of "pants." What are we Americans thinking? Personally, I'm thinking that YOU...will enjoy!  ~  JH
