Assuming you mean the Imperial March (the music that goes dum, dum, dum, dum-da-dum, dum-da-dum) ... yes, it is; very much so. I'm not sure who currently owns the copyright, but if you're looking to license it I'd suggest starting with BMI; I believe that they were the agents for John Williams at the time.

Jerry Brock's, "Fiddler on the Roof" Better Lyrics: Dang I have got a problem. Tweedle Dee and twiddle dum, I fidget and I squirm around. Seems that I just cannot quiet down Get to work and write this song. But I've seen songs by the scads Still I tweedle and I twiddle Dee and dum and squirm around Can't sit still and write this silly song, Type, delete, and type, delete, and type.... I wish that I could crank out songs by the millions, No inspiration for me. More words to dredge out of my brain pan, I see. Sitting here by the hour, hoping that it's right Or it's just a tolerable degree Maybe I can finish this tonight Where are all of the great ideas that I have had Floating a-all around Ideas by the millions floating on by? I'll catch one out of the air and frown at it and then I will type away.>BR> I have got a notion, Tweedle Dee and twiddle dum, I fidget and I squirm around. Seems that I just cannot quiet down Get to work and write this song. But I've seen songs by the scads Still I tweedle and I twiddle Dee and dum and squirm around Can't sit still and write this silly song, Type, delete, and type, delete, and type.... Original Lyrics: If I were a rich man, Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. All day long I'd biddy biddy bum. If I were a wealthy man. I wouldn't have to work hard. Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. If I were a biddy biddy rich, Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man. I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen, Right in the middle of the town. A fine tin roof with real wooden floors below. There would be one long staircase just going up, And one even longer coming down, And one more leading nowhere, just for show. I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese and ducks For the town to see and hear. And each loud 'cheep' and 'squawk' and 'honk' and 'quack' Would land like a trumpet on the ear, As if to say 'Here lives a wealthy man.' If I were a rich man, Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. All day long I'd biddy biddy bum. If I were a wealthy man. I wouldn't have to work hard. Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. If I were a biddy biddy rich, Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man.

Metre (Meter in US) means measurement. Metre is the rhythms, beats or length (in beats rather than in letters) of a line of poetry.There was an old man with a beardWho said 'It is just as I feared,Two owls and a henFour larks and a wrenHave all built their nests in my beard'.(Edward Lear)If you say this limerick aloud, you'll notice that the first, second and fifth line have the same rhythm and length, while the third and fourth have fewer beats. Putting nonsense syllables shows it better:Dee DUM dee dee DUM dee dee DUMDee DUM dee dee DUM dee dee DUMDee DUM dee dee DUMDee DUM dee dee DUMDee DUM dee dee DUM dee dee DUMThe DUMs are what are called stressed syllables - ones which get more emphasis, and the dees are unstressed syllables. In English, not all syllables in a word are stressed: a word like "teacher" has one stressed syllable followed by one unstressed one ("DUMdee", whereas "Japan" is the opposite ("deeDUM"). In a sentence, not all the words are stressed. When someone says 'did you see the Batman movie?' they probably won't stress the word the,and they'll only stress the word you if they want to make a point. So stress is quite variable in English speech. Poetry is a rather heightened form of speech, and it uses and plays with the rhythm of speech through metre.A very common metre in English poetry is iambic pentameter - pentameter means "five beats" (or five feet, as beats are often called feet), so there are five stressed syllables in each line, and 'iambic' means it has a pattern of one relatively unstressed followed by one relatively stressed syllable (deeDUM). It sounds fairly natural, and not obviously "poetic".'Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?' is a line of iambic pentameter:dee DUM dee DUM dee DUM dee DUM dee DUMEach deeDUM is called an iamb, hence iambic.The opposite of an iamb is a trochee (DUMdee).Trochaic tetrameter (four feet) is a bit less common, but Longfellow uses it in The Song of Hiawatha:Swift of foot was HiawathaHe could shoot an arrow from himAnd run forward with such swiftnessThat the arrow fell behind himDUMdeeDUMdeeDUMdeeDUMdee.It's easy to parody, as it's obviously unlike the way people speak - and in fact a lot of people parodied Hiawatha.The word "poetry" is stressed, unstressed, unstressed (DUMdeedee). This is called a dactyl (which means fingers: try strumming the fingers of one hand on a table top...)Dactylic metre is not easy in English, but Browning does it (with a trochee at the end of the first line and a single emphatic beat at the end of the second):Just for a handful of silver he left usJust for a ribbon to stick on his coatDUMdeedee DUMdeedee DUMdeedee DUMdeeDUMdeedee DUMdeedee DUMdeedee DUMThis puts a lot of emphasis on the word coat - to me, it gives an impression that Browning is almost spitting the word (the poem is about a betrayal: the handful of silver references Judas).The opposite of a dactyl is an anapaest: two unstressed syllables and one stressed: deedeeDUM. It sounds a bit like a horse galloping:Half a league, half a league, onwardsAll in the valley of death rode the six hundredThe first part of the first line is anapaestic.Twas the night before Christmas and all through the houseNot a creature was stirring, not even a mouseis in anapaestic tetrameter (four beats).dee dee DUM deedee DUMdee dee DUM dee dee DUMIt's rare nowadays for a poem to use the same metre all the way through. Poets are free to change metre within a verse, or even within a line (as Shakespeare did), as poetry more approaches the qualities of heightened speech.
'De do do do, de da da da' (Is all I want to say to you) is the opening line of the song of the same name; that is what it is called; it was performed by the band 'The Police' lead singer called 'Sting'.
No, Humpty Dumpty was not. Only Tweetle Dee, and Tweetle Dum.
Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dum are typically portrayed as twin brothers in the stories they appear in, such as "Through the Looking-Glass" by Lewis Carroll.
Fiddle-Dee dum Fiddle-Dee Dee, Skip around the moon, that's Pi times D! Oh, dear but that's absurd, Coz the area of the moon is Pi times R squared.
