I haven't had the chance to read this group for some time,
so have no idea of the original poster's intent. But,
for what it's worth, I did write a political parody to
this song about the somewhat infamous Governor of New
Jersey: Jim Florio.
Don't have all the words at hand  and I don't think it's
worth posting the whole thing unless requested,
but in part it went something like this:

-------------------------------------------------------
Well the Gov'ner told the people that he thinks it's a mandate
and he'll govern as he may please.
"Why should I even listen to the people's opinions,
now that they have elected ME"!

but did he ever return? No he never returned.
'cause the people, they have learned.
He'll be leaving Trenton in the next election...
He's the Gov'ner who never returned.

Well, I've found a couple of not so minor errors.  They are with the
original version of this song, not the hacked up version that Dr. D
released on Rhino Records.

[...]
>I was on a quest! Walking down the road one day, doo dah, doo dah,
                  ^ To Dream The Impossible Dream (TDTID)

That is the Original Classic Version of this song.  The one that
Demento plays now loses something w/o the Impossible Dream.

	Hello folx,
	A few years ago I tried to figure out a second`s worth of backward masking
on Weird Al Yankovic`s second album "Weird Al in 3-D."  The song with
the backward
masked message was "Nature Trail to Hell," and the message came up at
the end of
the female, banshee-like wailing voices that are pushing the movie of
the same name ("You`ll love it/You`ll agree" comes up amongst the
wailing).  I never did
fully catch the message, but it mentioned of "Cheez Wiz." 
	Has anyone here figured out the exact words mentioned in the message?

	Thanx in advance.

This info may be dated, but try 107.9 FM out of Beaumont (the signal
is strong enough to hear in Houston).  Sunday morning, starting at
7:00, or maybe it's 8:00.  I haven't tuned it in for months, but
that's the last known "sighting" that I've heard of.

The originals SHOULD be:

AIRLINE AMY (not his best)
WAFFLE KING (music styled after Peter Gabriel)
WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE (an old man chastizing some young whippersnapper)
(music styled after the guy who did the song Dirty Laundry)
TRIGGER HAPPY (music styled after the Beach Boys)

he was also going to do a parody of Milli Vinnilli

The new Weird Al has been sent to radio stations across the country!
Right now they have a CD single of "Smells Like Nirvana".  The cover
is hilarious.  It's virtually the same as the cover of Nirvana's
"Nevermind", except that instead of a baby, Al is in the water, and
instead of a dollar bill on a fishook, there's a jelly donut.
instead of having a dollar bill on a fishook, there's 
The music is very well done.  The song is basically about the
fact that no one has any clue what Nirvana is saying in their
song.  Unfortunately, some of Al's lyrics are also tough to 
make out.  It's not his best, but it is damn funny.  I'll try
to post lyrics to it later on.


BTW, Dr. D will be featuring an interview with Al during
the second hour of his next show.  He'll also be playing 3
of the new songs off of the album.  The album release
date is 4/14.

Ok, the only station that I have been able to bring in IS KKYS FM 104.7 
out of Bryan College Station.  You cannot pick it up in downtown, because
102.9 is on that frequency as well (in Victoria or something).
If you want to pick it up well, find a friend out in Cypress, or at least
out 290 past the Beltway (Jersey Village).  They should(with a good tuner)
be able to pick it up with no trouble, I listened to the show last 
weekend.

I want to thank everyone below for responding to my request for 
"Frontal Lobotomy".  Most responses said the artist is  Tom
"T-Bone" Stankus and the song, "Existential Blues". I wasn't even
aware that line was in that song. 

But the song I was really looking for was titled "Frontal 
Lobotomy" and I'm pretty sure it was performed by a different
artist and it was finally posted by gmd@socrates.umd.edu (Gina
Mai Denn). Thanx again, Gina! If you want the lyrics, see the
post by Gina or I can email it to you.

But, Gina did not tell me the artist's name.  My best
recollection is based on hearing it off the radio and I can only
spell it phonetically: 

Randy Hanslick 
Randy Anslick 
Randy Anslett

What am *I* listening to? I've heard it mentioned that the Live show
is different from the syndicated(?) version. Last night I heard
the Dr.'s salute(?) to the end of communisim which was listed
on *last* week's cue sheet, and the number one song was Fishheads.
But no Ren & Stimpy last night. We did have Whimsical Wil's Demented
news and some hilarious "Barbie" commercials. Are these only local
phenomenon? If so, is the National version brocast in LA at all?

Later,
