Ivan Skavinsky Skavar and Abdul Abulbul Amir. There are youtubes that have the song as recorded from a 1920s 78 record.

Very good. You should send it to Rush for a daily chuckle.

the Italian would take out a contract with the local spider and have it hit the fly.

The American - convenes Congress to subsidize both the coffee and the fly industries. Catches up with the Palestinian as he’s walking away from his vantage point over the cafe he just blew up, just to talk some sense into him. Leon Panetta emails him both sides of the NOC list in the Middle East and Asia.

Oh my goodness, I remember this song from Captain Kangaroo. Every now and then I try to look it up, but could never get the name right.

I found 3 versions on iTunes. Thanks for taking me down memory lane!

I thought it was Abdul the Bulbul Emir. But I got Ivan Skavinsky Skavar right, which was enough. It turns out that googling "and quite unaccustomed to fear" or "to harass the foe from the rear" is enough. Google is a useful tool even if the people who run the company are evil.
