at first, he was called simply Bruce  
for reasons that are quite obtuse  
they changed his first name  
to David, when tame  
and Bruce fell into full disuse

At least so it was on TV  
But Norton, and Ruffalo’s spree  
Restored the old name  
Our Hulk, still the same  
When angry, he’s something to see
