Bully In The Alley is a whaling shanty. The song is used as a distress code among street people and those on the lower rungs of Babbage society.

Chorus:

Help me boys, I'm bully in the alley
Weigh, hey, bully in the alley. 
Help me boys, I'm bully in the alley,
Bully down in Shinbone Alley.

Only someone intimately familiar with New Babbage would recognize it as anything other than a common sea song. Mr, Tenk sang it to passers by when he was trapped in Mr. Underby’s house in Clockhaven.
