Henry Darger lyrics

Who'll save the poor little girl?

Henry Darger, Henry Darger

Who'll save the poor little girl?

O, Henry...

Who'll tell the story of her?

Henry Darger, Henry Darger

Who'll tell it all to the world?

O, Henry...

Who'll buy the carbon paper now?

Henry Darger, Henry Darger

Who'll trace the lines of her mouth?

O, Henry...

Who'll conquer foreign worlds

Searching for the stolen girls?

"Princesses, you'll never fear

The patron saint of girls is here!"

Who will draw the cavalry in

Risk his very own precious skin

To make our Angelinia

A free and peaceful land, again?

Who'll love a poor orphan child?

Henry Darger, Henry Darger

Lost, growing savage and wild?

O, Henry...
