Obviously, this needs to happen, so let’s help the guy out by suggesting some titles for his songs. I’ll go first: “Just Lance,” a tune about everyone’s favorite ‘NSYNC frosted-tip-topped singer: “It was just Lance/Who was in On the Line/Not a good film for Joey Fatone to align…with.” Okay, I’m not a lyricist like Mike Slezak. But I’ll also suggest “Rad Bromance,” a non-Sarah Silverman or Jimmy Kimmel-penned tune about Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.
Either way, I can’t wait to see how Weird Al looks in a pair of platform boots, which recently sent Gaga toppling over at Heathrow airport. File under new Fox series: When Fashion Attacks! (She’s fashion roadkill!) Your turn, PopWatchers: Suggest a Gaga song for Weird Al!
Telephone Dude version
That Shane guy on YouTube already made one…it’s actually pretty funny.
If he makes it as awsome as the
“Smells like Nirvana”
then it will be a hit!!
“I got my red pen / I’ll punctuate until you’re sorry / Grammar, Grammar Nazi.”
You win!
EPIC WIN.
WIN!
Love it!!
OMG, totally!! And, it’s so relatable!
Brilliant! This one wins!
Yes this!!!
Wow, this is in every resepct what I needed to know.
Very creative—-this is the pick!
how about toys, toys, toys ? instead of boys boys boys
no one knows that song expect queers.
Bad Bromance of course
Smoker Face – about someone who has aged prematurely due to their pack a day habits. Instead of “pa pa pa pa pa poker face”, Al can just cough up a lung.
Nope – Polka Place. Since Al plays accordian this one is a no brainer!
Good call, Grace. I was gonna go with “Smoker’s Lung” : “Can’t breathe my/No, I can’t breathe with my smoker’s lung…”
“roker face” — the ode to al roker’s weatherman abilities
Love this one. I could see that being as awesome as it sounds.
Toys Toys Toys (parody of Boys Boys Boys)- could be about Toy Story (similar to Ode to a Superhero or The Saga Begins)
Car/Truck (parody of Starstruck)- it could be about an El Camino
How about teleprompter instead of telephone? I’m bad with lyrics…but I’m sure he could come up with something.
Perhaps a ballad entitled “Peachless” about a man yearning for his long lost fruit?
spot on, spot on
Poke Her Face. Too porny?
Too lame.
It’s been done. “Make Her Say” by Kid Cudi.
I think he should parody “Love Game”–I’d love to hear Weird Al’s version of “I wanna take a ride on your disco stick.”
My vote is for “Joker Face,” as an ode to the Dark Night in “The Saga Begins” tradition. Or you could be really crass and do a “Choker Face,” as a David Carradine parody . . .or was that too far?
“Joker Face” would be absolute win! He needs to do a Batman tribute, yes he does.
“Caught in a bowl of spam”
Lol, something very Weird Al-ish about that one. I guess because he likes food songs.
Rad Bromance is my favorite. You could parody Lady Gaga and bromantic comedies at the same time.
“I don’t wanna speak French. I don’t wanna speak French! I DON’T WANNA SPEAK FRENCH! Want your rad bromance!”
I’ve been waiting for him to do Alejandro as Olly-Oxen-Free. “Olly Olly Oxen, Olly Olly Oxen, Olly Olly Oxen Free”
