The song is called Prisencolinensinainciusol, written by Italian artist Adriano Celentano in 1972.  Recorded by Celentano and Raffaella Carrà in an American accent, it sounds like it should be English, but the lyrics are pure gibberish.  Oll Raight!
Of this song, Adriano Celentano said:  "Ever since I started singing, I was very influenced by American music and everything Americans did.  So at a certain point, because I like American slang - which, for a singer, is much easier to sing than Italian - I thought that I would write a song which would only have as its theme the inability to communicate.  And to do this, I had to write a song where the lyrics didn't mean anything."
