Here's a really random one

There's an orchestral song that always seems to be playing in cartoons when someone starts getting anvils dropped on them.

I know I've heard it a million times but I have no idea who it's by or what it's called...can't even think of what it sounds like at the moment, I remember it being up-beat though. But, if anyone has any ideas-they would be appriciated!

Is it like the sound in this clip?:

It's probably "Vedi! le fosche notturne" or, as it is more commonly known, the "Anvil Chorus" from Verdi's Il Trovatore. I remember hearing it in the WB cartoons as a kid, so that would be my guess.
