The Lyrics
In the same vein of this. I'm not as proud of this as I am of my previous one, but who cares? Enjoy! I used this as a resource.
This line is pointless
(Had to sneak that in there)
"Weird Al" Yankovic
A parodist
Eleven albums
Are on his list
But losers on the Internet
Had to go and wreck it all
Recording parodies, with Al's
Name, I am appalled
That's not Weird Al!
That ain't Weird Al!
Just ain't Weird Al, so true
"Y.O.D.A."
And "Born In East L.A."
And I bet Al won't have fun
If he hears that "Cows With Guns"
"Baby Got No Back"
Or "Baby Got Jack"
Either way, the artist was prob'ly
Smokin' crack
And I don't think that "Barney's On Fire"
Will be played at Al's next concert; I ain't a liar!
That's not Weird Al!
The real Weird Al
Won't be a pal with you
If you say that
"Star Wars Gangsta Rap"
Is by him, and he has cracked
On his website's Ask Al FAQ
"Real Slim Santa"
"Land of Napster"*
The "Star Wars Cantina"
I am appalled!
No proof at all
That they're by Al, it's true
"The Devil Went Down To Jamaica" ain't by him
"Rice, Rice, Baby" has never crossed his mind
Those losers must face the truth
If you do that, you're a tool**

* Supposed to be "Napster Land", which is supposed to be "Internet Sandman". I just had to make it fit the pacing for those 'la-la' bits.**'That' means 'recording a parody which isn't good on way or another and putting it under Al's name'.

We all know thats not him, but can we help it? A lot of people like weird Al enough to put parodies they made out into the world( despite the fact they contain curse words EVERYONE knows Al would never use). In fact, by the time his next album comes out (which is right around the corner), all those "losers on the internet" will probably resume the job they were doing 3 years ago. Still, great work you've done on pointing that all out for us.555
Good spin on a banal original... 5-5-5
Truly loved it, 5-5-5 to the MAXIMUM
very good 5-5-5
Looks like this OS is going to become an Amiright mainstay. Great idea and parody. 555
nice idea, nicely done, bobpie - 555
Man, I gotta come up with a parody of this song, but I can't think of anything that rhymes with "Beautiful." I loved the idea, and you nailed the execution. How in the world did you come up with such a great send-up? 555
man, why does everybody believe in brownnosing and kissing up to weird al? YOU WILL NOT SCORE BROWNIE POINTS THIS WAY! put out funny parodies, please! if you want kiss up to someone, move to north korea - kim jung il loves it!
I am not kissing up to Al. I am making a statement. I am trying to get a parody of the horrible OS in. I don't believe in brown nosing ANYBODY.
SOTM Good song. I couldn't d/l it, so DKTOS
SOTM - For some reason I couldn't remember this OS...I know I've heard it before.
Joel: Precisely. MrMacphisto, Charnstar, atomic + Rick: Thanx. Chris: It's called the "talking-to-myself-in-the-shower" technique. I use it. Cat uses it. Maybe you could use it. wannabemustangjockey: Which is exactly why I provided an mp3, which I do for almost every contest I enter. I just like being nice.
(SOTM) It's about time someone shed light on this subject. Nice one, Pieman. (and thanks for helping spread my "technique!")
SOTM - Who's Weird Al? ;-)
SOTM-Alright
like magnolia fan i dont see the appeal of weird al but i liked the parody.
bobpiecheese: Due to my inability to see the forest for the trees, I somehow didn't notice the MP3 when I posted that comment. So sue me.
Maybe not Al, but Barney's on Fire is still a good song, just like this one!
(SOTM) As I said before, great idea and parody.
(SOTM) I run across songs all the time that are credited to Weird Al, but aren't his, though I wish he did "Masturbator"; it's possibly the funniest 1:30 of music I've ever heard, and is a million percent better than TOS. Anyways, informative parody here pieman, and you've earned your 5s.
(SOTM) A lot of people have really upped their games this month, and you're playing with the big boys with this gem, bob. Informative, chucklesome, and technically well written. Great job. 555
(SOTM) A parody of a much-deserving-to-be-parodied-OS that parodies the reigning commercial king of parodies! Truly a META-PARODY!
(SOTM) actually a nice and well-docemented tribute to Weird Al and his back catalogue, bobpie - great job
Thought I'd commented on this already... kind of fun, great idea for a parody.
SOTM...nice job here!
Wow. I notice no rhythm, no set # of syllables, and no rhyme scheme. Call me a geek, but seriously, Shakespeare could have done better.
Wow, I never thought that someone would do a parody about fake Weird Al songs! 5-5-5 for you! Even though they're not Weird Al, some of my favorites are (real artists are in parentheses): "Grandpa Got Run Over By A Beer Truck" (Da Yoopers), "I'm A Wigga" (unknown, presumably WWA), & "Star Wars Theme: Disco Version (Meco Monardo). BTW, Baby Got No Back is just a mis-title of "Baby Got Jack" as far as I'm concerned. Also, for a list of songs misattributed to Weird Al, go to any one of the following websites: free.house.cx/~eil/etc/notal_list.html, www.com-www.com/weirdal/notbyal.html, or www.geocities.com/phillipriley/csna.html.
In regards to Dylan: I'm a wigga was done by Carl the wigga. Go check him out at www.myspace.com/bloodyfetus.
Missing from this list of Non Weird Al Parodies is "Ugly Girl", "Elmo's Got A Gun", "Please Don't Wear That Thong" among others. . .but excellent parody, and AGREED, people should take credit for their OWN PARODIES!!!
Nice one you got there, although I got stuck in some parts... - Blake = )
hey, nice song, i'm trying to get my james blunt parody on here but i'm on a library computer so time's limited but i will one day..
You are right except there is one problem with the song, Star Wars Gangsta Rap is by him. Check his official sites archive.
