Born in Hope, a tatterdemalion
Trailer trash, where riches were alien
But by wheeling and dealing
And lying and stealing
Little Bill is a modern Pygmalion

I’ve been working on finishing a little job that we had to leave off with all the rain-it needs to be done by Friday so we can get paid...

Any trashy tatterdemalion
Could do a much better job
With questions than Hillary
Who is such an obvious snob

Today she actually almost
Answered a question but then
Said she would consider it
And went to snooty again...

[MoochPooch]

What would I rather be — a functional tatterdemalion or a very itchy wearer of new clothing?
