JollySipper Posted Monday at 01:14 AM Posted Monday at 01:14 AM I used to really like Weird Al as a kid! My favorite parody he did was 'Another one rides the bus', mocking the Queen song......... He almost got in trouble over 'Amish Paradise' because Coolio never gave him permission to use his song......... 2

He almost got in trouble over 'Amish Paradise' because Coolio never gave him permission to use his song......... from how he tells it coolio's manager said yes he could but later found out coolio did not give permission cause he was never even told of the request but later was ok with it michael jackson gave al permission to parody any of his songs and even left him film the music videos for his parodies on the same sets for the mj songs he was parodying now prince was the only artist who verbally forbid al from parodying his songs and al would sneakly take a shot at prince in the song word crimes paul mccartney had no issue with al doing a parody of his songs as long as al did not talk about eating meat food made from animals since paul was a vegan there is a long standing quote that says you have not offically made it as a artist unless al does a parody of one of your songs

michelle Posted Monday at 05:37 AM Author Posted Monday at 05:37 AM here is a very rare weird al parody that he only played at a few concerts in the mid 80's and on the dr demento show but realized it came off as he was picking on the subject and quit playing at concerts and never released it on a album 1
ChrisBcritter Posted Tuesday at 08:24 AM Posted Tuesday at 08:24 AM For many years I wrote parody songs for my car club's annual meet award show. Back in 1999 the theme was Disco and I rewrote "Disco Inferno" as "Pinto Inferno": Out for a drive My new Pinto '75 Plaid seats, vinyl roof And a Sports Accent Group I shifted to Park It jumped into reverse Backed into a dump truck Now I'm gonna need a hearse I heard somebody say Burn, baby, burn Pinto Inferno Burn, baby, burn Burn that mother down (repeat) This contraption Blew up like a chain reaction Now I've got the blues Wish I had some asbestos shoes My 8-track's melting My tires turned to dust Should've bought a Vega That's a car you can trust I heard somebody say Burn, baby, burn Pinto Inferno Burn, baby, burn Burn that mother down (repeat) Up above my head I see smoke in the air That makes me know There's a Pinto somewhere Call Ralph Nader This car's an incinerator I must've been a nut To buy a car that self-destructs I towed it home My cruisin' days are through Stuck it in the backyard Now I use it for a barbecue I heard somebody say Burn, baby, burn Pinto Inferno Burn, baby, burn Burn that mother down Burn, baby, burn Pinto Inferno Burn, baby, burn It's a lot of fun Burn, baby, burn Pinto Inferno Burn, baby, burn Cook your burgers well done!
ChrisBcritter Posted Tuesday at 08:34 AM Posted Tuesday at 08:34 AM The 2007 show had a 1957 theme in honor of the buried Tulsa Belvedere; I wrote a juvenile delinquent version of "Bandstand Boogie" inspired by the old musical parodies in MAD Magazine: "CAN’T STAND 'BANDSTAND'” My voice is droppin’ Went down an octave today My zits are poppin’ Got Clearasil on my face My hair is sloppin’ Greasy kid stuff in place I’m on Bandstand (Bandstand) We’re goin’ dancin’ With lots of twistin’ and leaps We’re gonna rumble Until we fall in a heap We’re all delinquents A bunch of juvenile creeps On the Bandstand (Bandstand) So play that rock ‘n’ roll that your parents just can’t stand Robert Goulet? No way! It’s American Bandstand! When I get home I know that my hide’s gonna get tanned Too cool for school – I ditched for American Bandstand! I met a girl there She’s wearin’ satin and lace We dirty boogied It was a public disgrace Until her boyfriend He threw his fist in my face On the Bandstand (Bandstand) Fists began to fly – I was swingin’ the mike stand Look out – knocked out Dick Clark on American Bandstand So began a melee that emptied the grandstand Brenda Lee threw her shoe at me on American Bandstand They called the cops in They threw us up on the wall They slapped the cuffs on And they arrested us all And now we’re dancin’ Down at the juvenile hall Not the Bandstand (Bandstand) I called my daddy Asked him to pay off my bail He told me “Get lost! And you can rot there in jail!” And now the big guys They’re all a-grabbin’ my tail From the Bandstand (Bandstand) So jump and throw a fit on American Dance like a nitwit on American Chained up and locked I’m breakin’ rocks But what the hey – Bandstand!!!!
