Showing His Stuff
The fool on the hill passed the test
Proved he was dumber than the rest
He purchased a fine auto
Crashed it into a grotto
And said he’d only done his best.
So, if once was not bad enough
He wanted to show himself tough
He purchased an old roadster
From a dumber old jokester,
And he attempted to show his stuff.
The roadster wound up in a creek
Still the fool, anything but meek,
Bought a nifty old Ford truck,
Wrecked it in a muddy muck
Understand the fool's mind was weak!
