Wow...this song is really quite old, although this particular version appears to be a newer mashup. It was originally released in 1972, and is indeed pure gibberish. The more I listen to it, the better I like it...even if it does only have one chord.
Little bits and pieces I found...the clearest blurb was at http://www.artandpopularculture.com/Prisencolinensinainciusol
While we have several different video versions (which led me to think this one's a mashup) best found at http://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=1838
