This song was written for a "Slouch in the Couch" play.

lyrics

Alphatelli A, and Alphatelli B,
Went walking down the street,
To find Alphatelli C,
They kept walking and talking,
Just what should they do,
For nobody knew, where was,
Alphatelli U,
Alphatelli F, and Alphatelli N,
Without U, could have no FUN, (FUN!)

Now anybody tell me, if you’ve seen an Alphatelli,
Just look at their apron, which one did you see?
They’re happy with big bellies, [BRIDGE]
Each and every Alphatelli,
But Alphatelli U’s missing.

Alphatelli A, and Alphatelli B,
Found Alphatelli C, with Alphatelli D,
They told them, they’re problem,
Their help they did need,
To find Alphatelli U,
But they had not a lead,
Alphatelli H, and Alphatelli I,
Saw him by the candy store, (HI)
[BRIDGE]

In Fantasy Forest, I started my search,
I saw Mary Hearken there,
Also, Frankie Goodprankster, Bart the Shlox,
And Rennies running everywhere,
Alphatelli U, just had to be found,
In order for there to be fun, (FUN)
Can anybody tell me, if you’ve seen our Alphatelli,
He’s a cute looking fellow,
Like an O, with no top,
He’s happy with a belly, just like every Alphatelli,
And our search for him will never stop!








Alphatelli A, and Alphatelli B, met Alphatelli G and Alphatelli E,
They each heard a rumor, they hoped wasn’t true,
The Stinkells in Stankwell,
Have Alphatelli U,
Alphatelli A, and Alphatelli B,
Both ran to tell Stephen J,
Can anybody tell me, if you’ve seen our Alphatelli,
He’s a cute looking fellow,
Like an O, with no top,
He’s happy and likes jelly, just like every Alphatelli,
And drinks a lot of soda pop!

I grabbed Mary Hearken, To Stankwell we ran,
We hid so we would not be seen,
In the middle of town, a platform did stand,
And on it, stood Boris Damean,
That Mayor of Stankwell, had Alphatelli U,
Tied up with a big long rope,
We needed a plan, so our thoughts each began,
For action was our only hope.
(ha ha ha…I’ve got you now my little Alphatelli)

We circled the town, I went to the left,
And Mary Hearken, she went right,
She yelled at the Stinkells, and Boris Damean,
Bet you can’t catch me tonight,
They ran after Mary, I crept up behind,
Untying Alphatelli U,
We ran back through the forest, where we met Horace T. Morris,
He asked why did they want him, how did he get free,
Our little Alphatelli said, “Those Stinkells Love Spaghetti,
But didn’t have the recipe!”

Alphatelli A, and Alphatelli B, were walking down the street,
With Alphatelli P,
Mr. Buzzelli, was there with them too,
They were all having lunch,
With Alphatelli U,
Alphatelli F, and Alphatelli N,
We’re happy they could now have fun, (FUN)
Can anybody tell me, if you’ve seen an Alphatelli,
Just look at their apron, which one did you see?
Each and every Alphatelli, make a very good spaghetti,
With their very secret recipe,
[BRIDGE)
And Alphatelli U’s with me!
