The Weird Al Show Theme
[Album: Running With Scissors, 1998]
Oh, this is a story 'bout a guy named Al
And he lived in a sewer with his hamster pal
But the sanitation workers really didn't approve
So he packed up his accordion and had to move
To a city in Ohio where he lived in a tree
And he worked in a nasal discongestant factory
And he played on the company bowling team
And every single night he had this strange recurring dream
Where he was wearing lederhosen in a vat of sour cream
But that's really not important to the story
Well, the very next year he met a dental hygienist
With a spatula tattooed on her arm (on her arm)
But they didn't keep in touch and he lost her number
So he got himself a job at a tater-tot farm
And he spent his life savings on a split-level cave
Twenty miles below the surface of the earth (of the earth)
And he really makes a mighty fine jelly-bean-and-pickle sandwich
For what it's worth
Then one day Al was in the forest, tryin' to get a tan
When he heard the tortured screaming of a funny little man
He was caught in a bear trap and Al set him free
And the guy that he rescued was grateful as could be
And it turns out he's a big show producer on TV
So he gets Al a contract, and whaddaya know
Now he's got his very own Weird Al Show!
(The sad thing is that I didn't even have to look up the lyrics when I typed them in. ;)) |
