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!
