That reminds me of another coincidence -- or plagiarism. At about the
same time, Tom Lehrer released the song "Poisoning Pigeons in the
Park," and the German songwriter George Kreisler released "Tauben
vergiften im Park," which translates as "poisoning pigeons in the
park." The songs present the same idea of celebrating spring by
poisoning pigeons, and they're even somewhat similar musically.
Lehrer and Kreisler accused each other of plagiarism, but nothing was
ever proven in court.

For that matter, am I the only one who thinks the Lehrer sounds like the
Piaf song L�Accordeoniste?
