Song composed and sung by David W Solomons
based on a poem by Gavin Ewart (by kind permission of Gavin Ewart and Random House UK Ltd).
The score is available here:

Disclaimer: Gavin Ewart's poem pre-dates the Muppets character Flacido Flamingo and any connection with the great Spanish tenor Placido Domingo is purely down to the poet's individualistic sense of humour.
(The reference to "Italian" also indicates this!)
As they say: "It's just a bit of fun!"

Very witty and imaginative work!
