I was watching a syndicated edition of KOTH last night. It was the episode where Hank and the alley gang joined the Volunteer Fire Department. Dale kept singing this song to irritate Hank. It went something like B I B K E Y B I Bickey… Anyway can anyone identify it or direct me to it’s lyrics.

I need it for my evil scheme to rule the world. Oh and some duct tape.

I disagree.

I think what you’re looking for is “Swingin’ the Alphabet” by _The Three Stooges_ from the short _Violent is the Word for Curly_.

Sorry I don’t have exact lyrics, but here’s a shot

B A Bay  
B A Bee  
B I Bickey By  
Be Bo Bo  
Bickey By Bo Bu  
Bickey By  
Bicky By Bo Bu

Sorry for the lame attempt, but go to [this](http://www.threestooges.com/sounds.htm) page, select “alphabet” from the first drop down box and listen

I saw that episode last night too. It was definitely the Three Stooges song.

That episode was also on last night here in Dallas-Fort Worth. It is without a doubt one of the funniest KotH episodes yet.

In addition to the **B I Bickey By** song, there were other Stooges references in the show. For example, Boomhauer, _a la_ Moe, knocks Dale and Bill’s heads together. And at the end of the show, they play the Stooges “Three Blind Mice” song.

That’s it. Thanks **Why A Duck**.

Kepi, I had noticed those references too, but hadn’t thought there was a connection.

MHO- the funniest KOTH scene is Bobby in church as “The Amazing JEEEZUS!!”

I almost peed myself laughing.
