Pound's Whine-ter: Take 3

A parody of Ezra Pound's Parody of the Ancient Anglo-Saxon poem, "Cuckoo Song":
Pound's Whine-ter

Winter is a-coming in;
Ezra sings, "Cod-damn!"
Cats do drop and dogs do plop
By heaven's hellish ram,
And Ezra sings, "Cod-damn!"

Skittish buss or sloppy buss,
They shiver quick his timber!
But limber sounds like limper, suss,
And Ezra whines, "Remember?"

"Cod-damn, cod-damn!"
Belts out Pound, "Cod-damn!"
To counter winter's ram.

Sing cod-damn, damn! Sing cod-damn!
Sing cod-damn! Sing cod-damn, damn!
Still needs work?

If you can swing a pickaxe to its rhythm, then it's perfect.

A pickaxe, eh? I think I can borrow one from Trotsky. Last I heard, he had one within arm's reach . . .

(Er, reactionary humor? We've warned you about that before, Hodges.)
