I LOL'd.. :lol:

Adapted from this tune from Sesame Street - "Mah Na Mah Na"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAZtsCDN0Pk

There are many spin-offs from the original. Several of them are quite good.

Edited to add: "Mah Nà Mah Nà
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mah_N%C3%A0_Mah_N%C3%A0
"Mah Nà Mah Nà" is a popular song written by Piero Umiliani. It originally appeared in the Italian film Sweden: Heaven and Hell, but is best known in English-speaking countries from its use in the first episode of The Muppet Show. In the UK the song gained considerable popularity through the late 90's when a variation of "Mah Nà Mah Nà" was produced as part of an advertising campaign for the BN Biscuit[1] ..."

Ah, yes. Good old "Svezia, inferno e paradiso". About as far from the Muppets as it's possible to get. While all the ridiculous versions and parodies that have spawned over the decades are highly amusing, the little known story of its original use is probably my favourite thing about the song.
