This site gives the title of the song as Daisy Bell (A Bicycle Made For Two)- which is 7 words.

Kayakamina usually knows his stuff. I don't see why he's put Oxlip - but it would be worth posting your question again to ask him - as this thread is disappearing!

[goldenfield]

It seems pretty straightforward to me - wild on the mountain is OX, side is LIP - hence OXLIP. Am I missing something?

[ageing fast]

Must be me. My vision of an ox is a beast pulling a plough - do they live wild on mountains? And my thesaurus doesn't give lip as a synonym for side. It has been a long day - so maybe I'm being a bit dense.
