The song posted ("Passengers will please refrain ...") is a somewhat
corrupted version of the one I heard in college, lots of years ago.

It is sung to the tune of "Humoresque," and I cannot hear that
piece of music today without also hearing the rather raunchy words of 
the song in my mind.

I guess this is a relative of "This is the symphony that Shubert wrote
and never finished ...," or the verse and chorus of "Luminous pocket
planetarium" sung to Chopin's Marche Militaire.

So the classics are demolished ...
