Already horseless carriages

Who can't afford TO buy them.

Upon a thornless bush,
And seedless oranges are found
With the dago and the push.
They tell me that the apple
Will be changed forever more.
What will the ragamuffin do
If there's never no more core?
The seedless raisin is the joy
OF many household cooks.
And also for the sages
There are the priceless books.

For seedless grapes have come.
