**First dentistry was painless;  
 Then bicycles were chainless  
 And carriages were horseless  
 And many laws, enforceless\.  
 Next, cookery was fireless,  
 Telegraphy was wireless,  
 Cigars were nicotineless  
 And coffee, caffeineless\.  
 Soon oranges were seedless,  
 The putting green was weedless,  
 The college boy hatless,  
 The proper diet, fatless,  
 Now motor roads are dustless,  
 The latest steel is rustless,  
 Our tennis courts are sodless,  
 Our new religions, godless\.**
