Weird Al Yankovic - Perform This Way Lyrics

Weird Al Yankovic - Perform This Way Lyrics

My mama told me when I was hatched
Act like a superstar
Save your allowance, buy a bubble dress
And someday you will go far
Now on red carpets, well, I’m hard to miss
The press follows everywhere I go
I’ll poke your eye out with a dress like this
Back off and enjoy the show!

I’m sure my critics will say it’s a grotesque display
Well, they can bite me, baby – I perform this way
I might be wearin’ Swiss cheese or maybe covered with bees
It doesn’t mean I’m crazy – I perform this way

Ooo, my little monsters pay… lots ’cause I perform this way
Baby, I perform this way
Ooo, don’t worry, I’m okay… hey, I just perform this way
I’m not crazy, I perform this way

I’ll be a troll or evil queen
I’ll be a human jelly bean
‘Cause every day is Halloween
For me…

I’m so completely original
My new look is all the rage
I’ll wrap my small intestines ’round my neck
And set fire to myself on stage
I’ll wear a porcupine on my head
On a W-H-I-M
And for no reason now I’ll sing in French
Excusez-moi, Qui a pété? (Who cut the cheese?)

Got my straight jacket today, it’s made of gold lamé
No, not because I’m crazy – I perform this way
I strap prime rib to my feet, cover myself with raw meat
I’ll bet you’ve never seen a skirt steak worn this way

Don’t be offended when you see
My latest pop monstrosity
I’m strange, weird, shocking, odd, bizarre
I’m Frankenstein, I’m Avatar
There’s nothing too embarrassing
I’ll honestly do anything
But wear white after Labor Day
‘Cause baby, I perform this way

Hope you won’t think it’s cliché if I go nude today
Don’t call the cops now, baby, I perform this way
No reason I should regret all the attention I get
I’m not completely crazy, I perform this way, yeah

I perform this way-hey, I perform this way-hey
I’m always deviating from the norm this way-hey
I perform this way-hey, I perform this way-hey
I’m really not insane – I just perform this way-hey

Weird Al Yankovic - Party In The CIA Lyrics

Weird Al Yankovic - Party In The CIA Lyrics

i moved out to langely recently
with a plain and simple dream;
wanna infiltrate some third-world place
and topple their regime.

their men in black with their matching suitcases;
where everything’s on a need-to-know basis;
agents got that swagger;
everyone so cloak and dagger.

i’m feelin’ nervous but i’m really kinda wishing
for another undercover mission

that’s when the red alert came on the radio
and i put my earpiece on!
got my dark sunglasses on!
and i had my weapon drawn!

so i get my handcuffs,
my cyanide pills,
my classified dossier!

tappin’ the phones like yeah, shreddin’ the files like yeah,
and then i rised all the enemy spies i’ve got to neutralize today.

yeeeaaahhh, it’s a party in the cia!
yeeeaaahhh, it’s a party in the cia!

i’ve done a couple of crazy things that have almost got me dismissed,
like terminate some head of state who wasn’t even on my list.

burn that microfilm buddy, will you,
i’d tell you why but then i’d have to kill you!

you need a quickie confession?
well, start a waterboarding session!

no hurry on this south american dictator
i’ll assassinate him later
that’s when he walked right in my laser sights,
and my silencer was on,
and my silencer was on,
and another target’s gone!

yeah, we’ve got our backups all over the world, from kazakhstan to bombay;
payin’ the bribes like yeah, pluggin’ the leaks like yeah;
interrogating the scum of the earth, we’ll break them by the break of day!

yeeeaaahhh, it’s a party in the cia!
yeeeaaahhh, it’s a party in the cia!

need a country to stabilize?
look no further, we’re your guys!
we’ve got snazzy suits and ties,
and a better damn old plan than the fbi!

better put your hands up and get in the van,
or else you’ll get blown away!
stagin’ a coup like yeah,
brainwashin’ moles like yeah,
we only torture the folks we don’t like,
you’re probably going to be ok!

yeeeaaahhh, it’s a party in the cia!
yeeeaaahhh, it’s a party in the cia!
