Micho Russell the famous traditional musician from Doolin in Co.Clare was also well known as a singer.He had a great store of unusual songs some of them comic songs.One of them which he called MR.NOSEY It consists of seven verses.Here is the first verse

          A WONDERFUL TALE I AM NOW GOING TO DISCLOSE   
            CONCERNING A MAN WITH A VERY LARGE NOSE
            WITH AN ELEPHANT TRUNK THAT REACHES HIS TOES
            AND WITH IT HE'D DEAL OUT SOME TERRIBLE BLOWS.

I have a feeling it could be a very old music-hall song.I would grateful for any information about it's origin.If anybody wants the other six verses I will gladly pass them on.
