Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Barking Creek Bell-Ringer's Daughter
Subject: RE: Algenon Pide?
The song (recitation, actually) is THE BARKING CREEK BELL-RINGER'S DAUGHTER and the text has been posted here.

It has to be the right one because it mentions "octopuses" and "flag-e-olation."

There is a character named Algernon in it, but his last name is Stout. I have no idea where "Pide" comes from.
