From But Nearly to What

The but of the yes The mutt of the kennel
The butt of the goat The mutt of the class
The butt of the gun The nut of the class
The butt of the cigarette The nut of the squirrel
The butt of the joke The rut of the mind
The cut of the knife The smut of the chimney
The cut of the cloth The smut of the movies
The cut of the insult The shut of the door
The cut of the runner The strut of the rafter
The glut of the glutton The strut of the walker
The glut of the market The putt of the golfer
The hut of the woodsman The putt-putt of the motor
The hut of the quarterback And the tut-tut of the scolder
The jut of the cliff

Yo! So what happened to
the what ?
