Poem by Edward Lear

* * *

There was an Old Man with a poker,
Who painted his face with red oker;
	When they said, “You’re a Guy!”
	He made no reply,
But knocked them all down with his poker.

1. There was an Old Person of Leeds
2. There was an Old Person of Ischia
3. There was an Old Man with a gong
4. There was an Old Man of the West
5. There was an Old Man of the Isles
