Can you name a comedienne
Who knows how to play the accordion?
Who wears tacky shirts and bright Converse sneakers?
Whose hair is as luscious as Bernadette Peters?
Whose voice is as squeaky as Mickey the Mouse?
Whose world is more wacky than Pee Wee’s Playhouse?
You live in a cave if you couldn’t have guessed it
It’s our beloved Weird Al! Who we’re so impressed with
The guy that will mix rock and roll with a polka
And if he had sticks in your eye he would poke ya
A jokester, a prankster, a wisecracker is he
Who takes famous songs and creates parody!
He’s spoofed the best singers, Madonna and Gaga
And turned pie to Jedi with a great Star Wars saga
And who can forget that he japed Michael Jackson
In that clever but dorky Weird Al unique fashion
He’s oddball and goofy, his limbs like elastic
But man, are his videos freakin’ fantastic!
It actually takes such a great deal of talent
To do what he does, and to strike the right balance
Appreciate that his world view is askance
And today he enjoys a Weird Al renaissance!
An album, a press tour, and even a movie
He and Dan Radcliffe make silly look groovy!
Deserved accolades could not have come sooner
To such a great guy, can you believe he’s a “Boomer”??
Al might have grown older, but still has great hair
Wears proud the loud shirts with that swell savoir-faire!
He still has the verve of a man half his age
And we hope that he never retires from the stage
He’s made being nerdy the coolest of things
In our geekdom we’re proud that we crowned him our king!
