Perform This Way (Parody of "Born This Way" by Lady Gaga) - Weird Al Yankovic

[00:12.15]My mama told me when I was hatched
[00:15.66]Act like a superstar
[00:19.73]Save your allowance, buy a bubble dress
[00:23.31]And someday you will go far
[00:27.28]Now on red carpets, well, I'm hard to miss
[00:30.54]The press follows everywhere I go
[00:35.06]I'll poke your eye out with a dress like this
[00:38.54]Back off and enjoy the show
[00:41.87]I'm sure my critics will say it's a
[00:44.38]grotesque display
[00:45.78]Well, they can bite me,
[00:47.69]baby,I perform this way
[00:49.46]I might be wearin' Swiss cheese or
[00:51.22]maybe covered with bees
[00:53.52]It doesn't mean I'm crazy,
[00:55.68]I perform this way, form this way
[00:57.20]Ooo, my little monsters pay,
[00:59.56]lots 'cause I perform this way
[01:01.46]Baby, I perform this way, form this way
[01:05.34]Ooo, don't worry, I'm okay, hey,
[01:07.31]I just perform this way
[01:09.51]I'm not crazy, I perform this way
[01:12.98]I'll be a troll or evil queen
[01:14.89]I'll be a human jelly bean
[01:16.77]'Cause every day is Halloween
[01:18.83]For me
[01:20.97]I'm so completely original
[01:24.54]My new look is all the rage
[01:28.61]I'll wrap my small intestines 'round my neck
[01:31.68]And set fire to myself on stage
[01:36.30]I'll wear a porcupine on my head
[01:39.38]On a W-H-I-M
[01:44.46]And for no reason now I'll sing in French
[01:47.86]Excusez-moi, qui a pt?
[01:51.23]Got my straight jacket today,
[01:53.04]it's made of gold lam
[01:54.96]No, not because I'm crazy,
[01:57.32]I perform this way
[01:58.72]I strap my rib to my feet, cover
[02:00.83]myself with raw meat
[02:02.43]I'll bet you've never seen
[02:04.44]a skirt steak worn this way
[02:06.91]Don't be offended when you see
[02:08.76]My latest pop monstrosity
[02:10.78]I'm strange, weird, shocking, odd, bizarre
[02:12.73]I'm Frankenstein, I'm Avatar
[02:14.60]There's nothing too embarrassing
[02:16.47]I'll honestly do anything
[02:18.33]But wear white after Labor Day
[02:20.28]'Cause baby, I perform this way
[02:22.24]Hope you won't think it's clich
[02:23.50]if I go nude today
[02:25.46]Don't call the cops now, baby,
[02:27.42]I perform this way
[02:29.29]No reason I should regret
[02:31.05]all the attention I get
[02:32.96]I'm not completely crazy,
[02:35.13]I perform this way, yeah
[02:37.43]I perform this way, hey,
[02:39.19]I perform this way, hey
[02:40.95]I'm always deviating from
[02:43.21]the norm this way, hey
