The Little Old Man

There once was an old man,

Who lived in a land,

Where everyone was tan.

He was sly as a fox,

And lived in a box;

But he was shy,

When clad

In plaid

And a tie.

So, remember folks,

If you see this hoax;

A man in a box,

Being sly as a fox.

It's the little old man,

From the land

Where everyone is tan.
