The song in this video was written by Lehrer as early as 1952 or 1953 (may be even earlier), years before an Austrian version appeared, for which Lehrer did not get any credit. Sometimes Lehrer himself would cover other people's songs, but they were always credited. "Poisoning Pigeons In The Park" is a true Tom Lehrer original.

Some people have written messages to this channel, angered because of the posting of this song. They are "friends of all animals", which basically means that they didn't get it.
Lehrer said that he is OK with "The Tom Lehrer Wisdom Channel" on YouTube, as long as the performance is not altered and as long as it's free in the YouTube flash video format.
Click on the user name and visit the channel's front page. The channel is Lehrer only. And here is a link to a NEW channel support page:

One of my favorite songs from the Brave Little Toaster.
I can't take this kinda pressure
I must confess one more dusty road
Would be just a road too long
Worthless...
I just can't, I just can't
I just can't seem to get started!
Don't have the heart to live in the fast lane
All that has passed and gone
Worthless!
And there ain't nothing you can do about it
Worthless!
Pardon me while I panic!
Worthless! Worthless! Worthless!
I come from KC Missouri
And I got my kicks out of Route 66
Every truck stop from Butte to MO
Motown to Old Alabama
From Texarkana and east of Savanna from Tampa to Old Kokomo
Worthless...
I once ran the Indy 500
I must confess I'm impressed how I did
And I wonder how close that I came
Now I get a sinking sensation
I was the top of the line, out of sight out of mind
So much for fortune and fame
Once took a Texan to a wedding
Once took a Texan to a wedding
He kept forgetting, his loneliness letting
His thoughts turn to home and we turned
I took a man to a graveyard
I beg your pardon, it's quite hard enough
Just living with the stuff I have learned
Worthless...
Once drove a surfer to sunset
There were bikinis and buns there were weenies
Fellini, just couldn't forget
Pico, lets go up to Zuma
Pico, lets go up to Zuma
From Zuma to Yuma the rumor was I had a hand in the lay of the land
Get up and go hit the highway
I worked on a reservation
Who would believe they would love me and leave on a bus back to old Santa Fe?
Once in an Indian nation
I took the kids on the skids with a hope
He was happy until I heard him say
"You're worthless"
