Who'll save the poor little girl?
Henry

Who'll tell the story of her?
Henry Darger
Who'll tell it to all the world?
Henry

Who'll buy the carbon paper now?
Henry Darger
Who'll trace the lines of her mouth?
Henry

Who will 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
And risk his very own precious skin
To make our Angelinia a free
And beautiful land again?
Henry

Who'll love a poor orphan child, Henry Darger, Lost, growing savage and wild? Henry
