Overflowing button text is being clipped in safari
<p>I have a simple button tag and I specifically want the text to overflow the button. 
This works fine in current browsers with the exception of Safari (ios and osx) which clips the text at the button boundary. </p>

<p><div class="snippet" data-lang="js" data-hide="false" data-console="true" data-babel="false">
<div class="snippet-code">
<pre class="snippet-code-css lang-css prettyprint-override"><code>button,
.button {
    width: 100px;
    overflow: visible;
    white-space: nowrap;
    text-overflow: 'clip';
    text-align: left;
    -webkit-appearance: none;
    background: none;
    border: none
}</code></pre>
<pre class="snippet-code-html lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;button&gt;Very long text Very long text Very long text This Clips In Safari&lt;/button&gt;
&lt;div class='button'&gt;Very long text Very long text Very long text This Overflows&lt;/div&gt;</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
</p>

<p>I can't figure out how to get the text to overflow. 
Does anyone know how to make this work.
TIA</p>
