Quotes
-
Weird Al : I'm living the dream! To have 20,000 people every night singing MY words... to someone else's music... I feel truly alive on that stage.
-
Weird Al : So, would you like to see the rest of the house?
Madonna : There's only one room I'm interested in seeing.
Weird Al : Oh, I'm doing some work on the bathroom. But there's another one downstairs.
Madonna : Oh, I'm not talking about the bathroom.
Weird Al : Then let me show you to the laundry room.
Madonna : Al Yankovic, are you playing with me?
Weird Al : Yes?
-
Weird Al : You're all just a bunch of normals. I am the Weird one! I am the weird one!
-
Weird Al : [over phone, referring to Nick] What does he want to tell me?
Mary : Well, mostly he just wants you to know that he's definitely not proud of you.
Weird Al : What?
Mary : Yes. He told me to be crystal clear about that. Also, he still thinks that parody songs are stupid. And I don't have to tell you about how he feels about the accordion, do I?
-
Dr. Demento : I think Madonna's a bad influence on you. I think she's an evil, conniving succubus, and she's only using you for her pathetic and selfish needs.
Weird Al : What?
Dr. Demento : [to Madonna] No offense.
-
Weird Al : Pablo Escobar, you just made the biggest mistake of your life.
-
[inspired by The Knack's song "My Sharona" while looking at a stack of bologna, Al gets an idea for a new parody song]
Weird Al : M-M-M-My bologna... M-M-M-My bologna...
-
John Deacon : We're playing a little gig next week called Live Aid. I'd be honored if you'd join the band and play that song on stage with us. What do you say?
Weird Al : Hard pass!
-
Tony Scotti : I thought you should hear it from me first. Michael Jackson just released a new single called "Beat It." It's... um... well, it's a parody of Eat it.
Weird Al : You mean the kid from the Jackson Five? Why is that has-been trying to ride my coattails?
Tony Scotti : He actually has a pretty successful solo career now.
Weird Al : Whatever! You're telling me Michael Jackson recorded a parody of my song?
Tony Scotti : Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Same music, different words.
Weird Al : What kind of sick freak changes the words to someone else's song? Beat It, huh? Wait, so it's about eggs?
Tony Scotti : No, no, it's... uh, I don't think it's even about food. It's about fighting? Or trying to avoid a fight? I'm not exactly sure.
Weird Al : What gives him the right? Can he even do this?
Tony Scotti : I think you're overreacting just a little, OK? I mean, this could be great publicity. Sell a few more albums...
Weird Al : No, I don't need to sell more albums, Tony! I need people to start taking me seriously that creates original music. Now some idiots will probably get confused and think Beat It came first!
Tony Scotti : Nobody's gonna think that.
