Ah, okay, for this one I've decided to make a little game. I'm going to see if I do in fact know all the words, in order, for Weird Al Yankovic's Bob. Your job is going to be to watch the video, and tell me how I did. I give you my word I will not cheat. Here we go.

I man am regal, a German am I
Never odd or even
If I had a hifi
Madam, I'm Adam
Too hot to hoot
No lemons no melon
Too bad I hid a boot
Lisa Bonet ate no basil
Warsaw was raw
Was it car or a cat I saw?

Rise to vote, sir
Do geese see God?
Do nine men interpret? "Nine men," I nod
Rats live on no evil star
Won't lovers revolt now?
Race fast safe car
Pa's a sap
Ma is as selfless as I am
May a moody baby doom a yam

Ah, Satan sees Natasha
No devil lived on
Lonely Tylenol
Not a banana baton
No "x" in Nixon
O stone be not so
O Geronimo, no minor ego
"Naomi," I moan
A Toyata's a Toyota
A dog a panic in a pagoda

Oh no, Don Ho
Nurse, I spy gypsies, run
Senile felines
Now I see bees I won
U.F.O. tofu
We panic in a pew
Oozy rat in a sanitary zoo
God, a red nugget, a fat egg under a dog
Go hang a salami, I'm a lasagna hog!

Okay, I think that's it. Dang, Weird Al, you are a half-mad half-insane genius.

I compared it to a write up of the lyrics in case I heard wrong, but it looks like you had it right!

I've never heard the song, so it took me until the second verse to realize what the deal was with the lyrics.

(And now that I started the video I see I could have read along. *laughs*)

\o/ YES! That second verse gave me some trouble, couldn't remember first half, but I worked it out.

Isn't it amazing? All perfect palindromes, that even rhyme. I was staggered.

It is really cool! I used to listen to a lot of Weird Al, though I'm not as familiar with some of his stuff past Running with Scissors. This was good though and a nice reminder of why I enjoyed him in the first place.

I only have a few songs of his, but I have very fond memories of watching his music videos at the end of the year in music class.

This gets no less impressive each time I watch it. I especially love how obviously Bob Dylan-esque it sounds, even if you haven't seen the particular video.

No kidding. I think the only Weird Al song I like better is "That's Your Horoscope."

"White and Nerdy" is still my favorite; the video alone is just so awesome.

Did you see the fanvid that used "White and Nerdy" for Gus from Psych? Classic.

LOL, this one? I had not, but I just went to look it up.
