Subject: Origins: Alfonso Spigoni, the Torreador
Hi! I'm lookng for a recorded source for a song I heard (and transcribed the words to) long ago. The chorus goes like this:
When i catch Alfonso Spigoni, the torreador. Ah, ah, ah With a mighty swipe I will dislocate his balley jaw. Ah I'll fight the bullfighter, I will and when I catch the blighter the bounder I'll kill He shall die, he shall die, he shall di-diddle-ee-i-di-di-di-di-di-di He shall die, he shall die For I'll raise a bunnion on his Spanish onion If I catch him bending(?) tonight
It sounds like a Flanders and Swann song, but isn't. At least, I looked at all their cuts on Amazon and couldn't find anything that looked quite right. Can anyone help me relocate the source for this wonderful song?
