Well, Judy, somehow the first part of my reply got lost, maybe when I tried to do it by copy-and-paste. My point was to subtly point Dick's attention to the fact that the Switzerland-Siberia verse you provided isn't in the database Harnick wrote another Kingston Trio song, "The Ballad of the Shape of Things," which is in the database, but isn't attributed to him and has an incorrect title.
Of course, Harnick is best known for "Fiddler on the Roof." Don't know about the Algernon song. I think I've heard it before, but can't remember where.
