Yankovic, Weird Al - Lame Claim To Fame Lyrics

anyone else notice that his plumber is dr. demento?

1:30 there actually 2 days off 21st and 23rd of October

My lame claim to fame is I'm related to geroge Washington

My mom once taught ballet at the school where Cal Ripken Jr.’s daughter took ballet lessons

I had dinner with Keith David!

Needs more cowbell!

My brother was a big fan of Adam Sandler. On the one and only big trip my family ever took (all others were to the Delaware Beach) we went to Bermuda and on the plane trip back (only the second time we had ever been on an airplane, the first being our trip there) we met Adam Sandler! We were not sure it was him at first, but my brother being such a big fan, I went up and asked him timidly and he said it was him and he signed the only thing we had handy, our plane boarding pass. Being older, I now feel bad as several other people went up to him afterward, probably making the last day of his vacation a little overwhelming, but if you ever read this Adam, that signature was ruined by our house being flooded two years later and my brother still is sad about the loss of that signed boarding pass to this day. If you ever reach out to me, I will lovely give you my brother's address to send him a new signature, he still loves all your movies.

One time a popular animator hearted my comment

we all exist on the same planet as al.

My mother's cousin has the same name as Michael Jackson.

Al, you’ve met Micheal Jackson like 10 times

More cowbell! I still have a fever

I went to school with a girl whose aunt watched Tim Allen work on his boat one summer.

She said he saw her watching and was a real dick about it.

I've been stranded on the side of the road with Ted DiBiase.

LameClaimToFame:DC Comics(Warner Bros.) commented on my post about
JL Movie on their page few years before its release

I yelled at Bob Hope from across a parking lot in 1987. He waved back.

Loved the cameo by Dr. Demento!

One time I commented on a weird al music video🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

my lame claim is i once looked at a picture of Steve buscemi

I have cousin from Nigeria who wants to give me his collection of gold bars!!!

Don't see many dr demento cameos in weird Al videos these days awesome to see him

My best friend invited me to see a play with him, but gave me the wrong directions for the theater. He said he'd save my seat for me, (the front desk would have my ticket) but when I got there halfway through, they made me stand at the back. When I met with my best friend later, he told me Bradley Cooper quickly came in and stole the seat my friend was holding for me, saying he'd move if I showed up. When the play ended, he left just as quickly as he'd arrived.

So to make it a snappy song lyric: one time at a theater, my seat was stolen by Bradley Cooper.

I saw Charlie Puth in concert and I’m pretty sure he smiled right at me!

My brother was in a band with one of Siobhan Fahey's friends. I uses to know a business associate of Marcella Detroit. Ergo I know Shakespeare's Sister and Banarama....

One winter night, we almost ran over Ralph Fiennes in Manhattan about 15 years ago. Damned fool walked straight out in front of us. We were driving a 94 Ford Explorer. Husband slammed breaks. If the brakes had failed, he'd been a greasy patch in the road. As it was, Ralph could have reached out and touched the hood.

I told my husband he almost ran over Ralph Fiennes...he was like who is that? 😂😂
