There Was a Man

There was a man in my hometown,
The wisest of the wise;
He jumped into a bramble bush
And scratched out both his eyes.
But when he found his eyes were out,
With all his might and main,
He jumped into another bush
And scratched them in again,
And scratched them in again.
The wisest of the wise;
He jumped into a bramble bush
And scratched out both his eyes.
But when he found his eyes were out,
With all his might and main,
He jumped into another bush
And scratched them in again,
And scratched them in again.
