edgar allen poe

Does anybody know what show this song is from. It is an ensemble piece about students being afraid of their teacher asking a question about Edgar Allen Poe in class today.......

Yes Ma'am the answer is 5...
.......8?
..........83?
How'd it be if I spelled Mississippi?




I love that song it's so much fun! It was especially done well at the Snoopy benefit concert this April, great song.

thanks!

My friend had it stuck in his head and couldn't figure out where it was from. I figured someone was bound to know on here:)

Yes, actually I'm pretty sure there's two recordings, one being the London one (thats the one that I have also.) When I was looking to buy a version of it I saw there was a 1975 San Francisco cast recording of it also. Trying to buy in a store just wasn't happening, I couldn't find it anywhere but I ended up finding it online. The SF recording is 14 tracks while the London one is 20 so it is a bit shorter.

However I've never heard the SF one, I only know the London one.



EDIT: Trying to buy IT in a store, sorry.
