Billy Was Silly

If you're William, then you're Billy.
The one I knew was damned silly
Sick but climbing the hilly
Hard steel, if you sought his Lily
But soon wasting the same Lily;
Orders obeyed willy-nilly...

Do you like to dilly dally?
Still your acts with his must tally:
He wouldn't be facing Nelly
And you watching fancied Nelly
Or he admonishing Kelly
And you lying on your belly!
