("Yakety-Yak") "Bomb Iraq" Song Parody and Animated Web CartoonPlay this trailer

"Saddam's a tyrant; he's insane, a Hitler by another name. He's gassed his people and the Kurds; it's time to squash that camel turd -- Yakety-yak, bomb Iraq!" And with those stirring lyrics and the music of song parodists Vince Vance and the Valiants (in a peppy send-up of The Coasters' 1958 hit), Saddam Hussein becomes the deserving butt of Iraqi war jokes.

Review:

There are several versions of the idea floating around the Net and there have been copyright issues, so the bit might disappear altogether. Here's a short Webtoon version from Madblast via Wellbored. A link to the full-length .MP3 song audio is provided in the sidebar.
