Where parodies & originals meet in the middle (so to speak...)

Weird Al has parodied a lot of people over the years (obviously, or else he wouldn't be known as the Prince of Parodies), so it's not surpirsing some fans would want to see 'em mixed with the original songs. I'm one of those fans, but I don't have audio editing skills, so what's for me to do?

...Well, I could just take the lyrics and mash them together. That's close enough!

Note: I try to keep to keep the original/parody ratio 50/50, but some songs may lean towards one end or another. I may also change lyrics or add in my own if I think it fits.


"I Love Rock 'n Roll"/"I Love Rocky Road" (or; "Now with 50% more romance! ...Or 50% less romance? I couldn't tell ya...")

I hear those ice cream bells and I start to drool

Keep a couple quarts in my locker at school

The beat was goin' strong

Playin' my favorite song


And I could tell it wouldn't be long

'Til it was with me, yeah, me!

Don't gimme no crummy taste spoon

I know what I need!


I love rocky road

So put another dime in the jukebox, baby

I love rock 'n roll

So have another triple scoop with me, ow!


They tell me ice cream junkies are all the same

All the soda jerkers know my name!

Asked one can I take you home

Where we can be alone?


And next, we were movin' on

He was with me, yeah, me

Next, we were movin' on

He was with me, yeah, me, singin'


I love rocky road

So put another dime in the jukebox, baby

I love rock 'n roll

So have another triple scoop with me, ow!


(Oh, make it talk!)


Next, we were movin' on

He was with me, yeah, me

And we'll be movin' on and singin' that same old song

Yeah, with me, singin'


I love rocky road

So put another dime in the jukebox, baby

I love rock 'n roll

So have another triple scoop with me, ow!


I love rocky road

So put another dime in the jukebox, baby

I love rock 'n roll

So have another triple scoop with me, ow!


I love rocky road

So won't you go and buy half a gallon, baby?

I love rock 'n roll

So have another triple scoop with-


I love rocky road

So put another dime in the jukebox, baby!

I love rock 'n roll

So come and take your time and dance with-


I love rocky road

So won't you go and buy half a gallon, baby?

I love rock 'n roll

So have another triple scoop with me!


"Lump"/"Gump" (or; "Gump's dead!")

Gump sat alone in a boggy marsh

Totally emotionless except for his heart

Mud flowed up into Gump's pajamas

He totally confused all the passing piranhas


He's Gump, he's Gump

What's in his head?

He's Gump, he's Gump, he's Gump

He's kind of mislead!


Gump lingered last in line for brains

And the one he got was sorta rotten and insane

Small things so sad that birds could land

Is Gump fast asleep or rockin' out with the band?


He's lump, he's lump

He's in my head

He's lump, he's lump, he's lump

He might be dead


Run, run

Run, run, now Forrest, run

Run, run like the wind now

Run, run

Run, run, now Forrest, run

Stop!


His buddy Bubba was a shrimp-lovin' man

His friend with no legs, he called Lieutenant Dan!

He spent his twenties between the sheets

And life limped along at sub-sonic speeds


He's Gump, he's Gump

He's not too bright

He's Gump, he's Gump, he's Gump

But he's alright!


(Wow!)


Is this Gump outta his head?

I think so!

Is this Gump outta my head?

I think so!

Is this lump outta my head?

I think so!

And that's all I have to say about that!


"Another One Bites the Dust"/"Another One Rides the Bus" (or; "Steve's Terrible Bus Ride")

Steve walks warily down the street

With the brim pulled way down low (yeah)

He couldn't find a seat, so he had to stand

With the perverts in tow


It was smellin' like a locker room

There was junk all over the floor!

Out of the doorway the bullets rip

To the sound of the beat, yeah!


Another one rides the bus

Another one bites the dust

And another comes on and another one gone

Another one rides the bus

Hey, he's gonna sit by you, another one rides the bus!


How do you think I'm going to get along

Without you, when you're gone?

You took me for everything that I had

And kicked me out on my own!


Well, I think I'm missin' a contact lens

I think my wallet's gone

And I think this bus is stoppin' again

To let a couple more freaks get on, look out!


Another one rides the bus

Another one bites the dust

And another comes on and another one gone

Another one rides the bus

Hey, he's gonna get you too, another one rides the bus!


Another one rides the bus

Another one bites the dust, ow!

Another one rides the bus, hey, hey

Another one bites the dust, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!


There are plenty of ways that you can hurt a man

And bring him to the ground

Steve haven't been in a crowd like this

Since he went to see The Who downtown!


But he's ready, yes he's ready for you

He's standing on his own two feet!

Wait!

There isn't any room for him to breathe

And now they're gonna pick up more, yeah!


Another one rides the bus

Another one bites the dust

And another comes on and another one gone

Another one rides the bus

Hey, he's gonna sit by you!

Another one rides the bus!


"Like a Virgin"/"Like a Surgeon" (or; "Putting the "practice" in "medical malpractice"")

I made it through the wilderness

Somehow I made it through

I'm just an intern

I still make a mistake or two


I'd been had

Barely passed at the institute

Now I'm trying to avoid, yeah I'm trying to avoid

A malpractice suit


Like a virgin

Cuttin' for the very first time

Like a surgeon

When your heart beats next to mine


Gonna give you all my love, boy

My fear is fading fast

Complications have set in

Don't know how long he'll last


You're so fine and you're mine (Let me see that I.V.!)

Make me strong, yeah you make me bold (Here we go, time to operate...)

Oh, your love thawed out

Yeah, your love thawed out what was scared and cold


Like a surgeon, hey!

Touched for the very first time

Like a virgin

Here's a waiver for you to sign


Whoa-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh, ah

Whoa-oh-oh


You're so fine and you're mine

I'll be yours 'til the end of time

Cause my patients die, yeah my patients die

Before they can pay


Like a surgeon, hey!

Touched for the very first time

Like a virgin

Got your kidneys on my mind


Like a virgin

Ooh-ooh, like a virgin

When I reach inside

With my scalpel, and my forceps, and retractors...

Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh


Ooh baby, yeah

Can't you hear your heart beat

For the very last time?


"Rico Suave"/"Taco Grande" (or; "A Taco Grande for only $9.90? WHAT A DEAL!!")

Taco... Grande...

Rico... Suave...


Yo quero chimichangas y chile colorado

Yo tengo el dinero para un steak picado

Un joven responsable y siempre bien vestido

Yo no sé quién ha mentido


I don't drink or smoke, I ain't no dope

Won't try no coke, ask me how I do it, I cope

My only addiction has to do with flour tortilla

I need a quesadilla


No me gustan ternos, mi estilo es moderno

Si me enterno, you me enfermo

Yo tengo mucho hambre y ahora lo quiero

Un burrito ranchero


So give me something spicy and hot now

Break out the menu, what you got now?

Oh, would you tell the waiter I'd like to have sour cream on the side

You better make sure the beans are refried


Taco... Grande...

Rico... Suave...


Well there's not a taco big enough for a man like me

That's why I order two or three!

I ain't one to commit, you can omit that bit

You pop the question, that's it!


I eat uno, dos, tres, quatro burritos

Pretty soon I can't fit in my Speedo!

No es un delito calmo mi apetito

Con un llanto o un grito


Well the combination plates all come with beans and rice

The taquitos here are very nice

Now I'm down on my knees, we need some extra tomatoes and cheese

And could you make that separate checks, please?


Taco... Grande...

Rico... Suave...


"Buenos noches, senor, bienvenido a Enrico's casa de salsa. Tenemos muchos platos muy sabrosos, si puedo recomendar el ardiente pollo al infierno? Muy delicioso. Sus ojos se quemaran, su estomago estara en fuego, se quedaran en el baño por una semana! Entiendes lo que digo gringo estupido tonto?!"


Well, it's ten o'clock and I'm two hours late

I never said I was a prompt date

But you kept persisting that I meet your parents

Huh, they're going to love my appearance!


Oh boy, pico de gallo!

They sure don't make it like this in Ohio

No gracias, yo quiero jalapenos, nada mas

You can toss away the hot sauce


Donde estan los nachos? Holy frijole!

You better get me a bowl of guacamole

Y usted, Eugene? Why's your face turning green?

Don't you like pinto bean?


What's this, amor, these little huevos?

Esto sí que yo no pruebo

I'm used to good ol' fashioned, homestyle Spanish cooking

If I try that, I'll be puking!


Well, it's been a pleasure, I can't eat no more

Regresaremos temprano

Cinco, seis, o siete de la mañana

Just don't drink the water


Taco... Grande...

Rico... Suave...

Taco... Grande...

Rico... Suave...


"Smells Like Teen Spirit"/"Smells Like Nirvana" (or; "Smells Like Comedy")

Load up on guns, bring your friends

It's fun to lose and to pretend

How do the words to it go?

I wish you'd tell me, I don't know...


Don't know, don't know, don't know

Oh no

Hello, hello, hello, how low

Hello, hello, hello...


With the lights out, it's less dangerous

Here we are now, entertain us!

Crank the volume, ears are bleedin'

I still don't know what I'm singin'!

We're so loud and incoherent

Boy, this oughta bug your parents!


(Yeah, hey! ...Yay!)


I'm worse at what I do best

And for this gift, I feel blessed

Our little group has always been

And always will until the end!


Hello, hello, hello, how low

Hello, hello, hello, how low

Oh no

Don't know, don't know, don't know...


Well, we don't sound like Madonna

Here we are now, we're Nirvana!

I feel stupid and contagious

Here we are now, entertain us!

A garage band from Seattle

Well, it sure beats raisin' cattle...


(Yeah, urp... TWANG!)


And I forget just why I taste

Oh, well, I guess it pays to rehearse

I found it hard, it's hard to find

What are the words? Oh, nevermind...


Hello, hello, hello, how low?

Don't know, don't know, don't know...

Hello, hello, hello, how low?

Don't know, don't know, don't know...


With the lights out, it's less dangerous

Here we are now, entertain us!

What's the message I'm conveyin'?

Can you tell me what I'm sayin'?

So, have you got some idea?

Didn't think so, well, I'll see ya...


A denial, a denial

A denial, a denial

Odinaya, yodinaya

Yaddayadda, yaaahyaaah

Ayiyaaaaaah!


Come back home, won't you?
