"El Biscella" (transl. bully boy) is a song in Milanese dialect[1] composed in 1969 by Giovanni D'Anzi[2] and Alfredo Bracchi.

"Biscella" is a Milanese word[3] derived from bisc-bish, meaning hedgehog), a kind of bully who tries to intimidate people, but whose clumsy manners make him more comical than dangerous.

The song was performed also by Nanni Svampa and Gianni Magni.
