There was a young man so kind

 

There was a young man so kind

He left his possessions behind

When along came a cat

At the drop of a hat

And robbed the poor man blind

There was a Young Person of Smyrna,

There was a Young Person of Smyrna,
Whose Grandmother threatened to burn her;
But she seized on the cat,
And said, 'Granny, burn that!
You incongruous Old Woman of Smyrna!'

Edward Lear

There was a old man from Berlin,

There was a old man from Berlin,

Who didn't know where to begin,

When seeing a cat,

Getting chased by a bat,

He wondered what world he was in.
