All the gents who make
Life worth living in this indigent
Hollow accomplishment
Dedicated to the decimated
Childhoods made renovated
Oct. 23, 1959
Born best selling recording humorist of all times
To first generation Americans who'd already got hang of it
Alfred Matthew Yankovic
Lynwood High School valedictorian
Recorded in the bathroom and played accordion
Under humor rubric Dr Demento debuted it aka
Barry Hansen who knew a thingertwo bout music
He liked to write poems to Spike Jones
Pressed up his own records and biked home
Trained in architecture
Hired same directors rebuilt sets fer
Cla**ic videos-- often his were better
On the daily Hawaiian shirts and vans
On stage, fat suits and monster band hurt the fans
k**ed em, sold out world tours filled with children
A symbol for freedom like Zildjian and Sabians
Which his drummer uses
Loses his gla**es with LASer In Situ Keratomileusis
He cancelled interviews but still rolled through
When his folks died from no O2 and a closed flu
I bought his tapes the days they came out
He stays humble with fame and never claims clout
Sometimes satire falls flat like a flat tire
But false seriousness can also backfire
It's an act of balance many talents lacks
Check out his originals, like half his album tracks
With no curses. This verse has come to an end
Back in the days I was a "close personal friend"
