Facts:
  • It's Nonsense All Right: On both their 1959 children's album and 'Demento's Mementos', this song is called 'The Alphabet Song' even though Moe introduces it as 'Swinging The Alphabet' on both tracks. (Stavro Arrgolus)
  • Originally from the 1938 classic Stooge short "Violent is the Word for Curly".

    Released in a form made specifically for children on the 1959 LP 'The 3 Stooges Nonsense Songbook'. (Stavro Arrgolus)
  • Below are the lyrics to the 1959 children's album version also included on 'Demento's Mementos' in 1983. The album version skips several letters for time. (Stavro Arrgolus)
