Clowns in Scotland aren't tall. One suspects
It's because “Health and Safety” objects.
They say men wearing kilts
Aren't allowed to use stilts
'Cause the ladies get cricks in their necks.

In the olden days Scotsmen were skilt
In the art of arranging their kilt
To sleep rough on the moors.
But they now live indoors
And can cuddle up warm with a quilt. 

Based on the suggestion: “kilt”
