All right, I've tried this before. But let me give it another go:
We're the battling bastards of the Bronx
We got rips in our ankles and bonks in our conks.
No Sevvy, no Didi, no Stanton (No thonks).
No Judge, no Frazier, no Hicks, and no Bird,
Our manager stinks and our pen is absurd,
But at least Hal has got Jacoby insured.
No Miggy, no Green, no Tulo, no Hicks,
And the sorriest roster this side of the Knicks.
And none of them gives a damn.
And none of us gives a damn.

We're the rambling wrecks of Georgia Tech and we're helluva engineers.
Boy, you make that plural and you run into all kinds of linguistic trouble. But we're battling bastards and rambling wrecks, for sure.
Brava!
thanks Hoss for reminding us of this:
Battling Bastards of Bataan
We’re the battling bastards of Bataan;
No mama, no papa, no Uncle Sam.
No aunts, no uncles, no cousins, no nieces,
No pills, no planes, no artillery pieces
And nobody gives a damn
Nobody gives a damn.
by Frank Hewlett 1942
The original is a great poem, and very true about American fighting men who had been cruelly betrayed by a lack of preparedness, and terrible command decisions. They paid an awful price.
