I have four sturdy legs, a flat top for holding your homework, and drawers, but I never wear clothing. What am I?
A desk
This riddle relies on a playful double meaning of the word 'drawers.' While clothing drawers refer to undergarments, a classroom desk features built-in sliding storage compartments called drawers alongside its four legs and flat writing surface.
