The song was actually written by Bertolt Brecht, the Communist German playwright. You may also know his "Mackie der Messer" (aka Mack the Knife).

Interesting. NPR (classical music serves as filler between Rush and Savage during automobile trips) touted the song Mack the Knife during a name that tune show.
