She never liked the sound, twas always a nagging rustle
When she wore her longest skirt, over that annoying bustle
Wanting more freedom, from those cumbersome togs
She threw on her mini skirt, the kind in those catalogues
All the other women, looked at her, oh! Quite distraught
Melanie paid no mind, never giving it a second thought
In fact she found them amusing, all she could do was gloat
Knowing they’d never be happy, in those plastered petticoats
