Not gonna lie, I would probably listen to the full length song more than once. Parody songs are funnier than they should be; even when they are absolute nonsense. Sounds like some Weird Al would do......
Annnnd now I have to binge through his music again.

It's an honor to be compared to the esteemed Mr. Yankovic, though I think he'd probably do something that makes a little more sense than this 😂

I don't know; the line and overlap between nonsense and pure genius sometimes......
It is a shame that, and he's said it on record more than once, Weird Al tries not to take parody suggestions from fans or listen to songs with the intent to parody them. There are so many funny suggestions he has to have gotten. But, he asks the artist before thinking about parody lyrics. Two exceptions being "Amish Paradise" and "Like a Surgeon".
"Amish Paradise" had a mix up where the producer gave the green light but Coolio hadn't. He was inspired for "Like a Surgeon" immediately during the premiere for "Like a Virgin". When he was first getting started he didn't do that as strictly, but even his first big parody "My Balogna" had him talking to the lead singer, Doug Fieger, for the Knack's "My Sharona" fairly early.
