Miss Ultra Style has come to town
Clad in an ugly "Buster Brown;"
The name is not refined nor chic,
The style is not unique nor spic,
The suit looks like it "fits too quick"
Or had been been "welted" with a brick;
The front looks like 'twas falling down,
And looks more like a busted Brown;
You do not have to stand erect
To get that stlish dip effect;
The whole thing dips, and hangs 'way down;
Ali )l the ugly " Buster Brown."
