Tacky -- “Weird Al” Yankovic’s music video

“Weird Al” Yankovic’s first music video for his #8videos8days project is 'Tacky' -- a parody of 'Happy.'



And ICYMI, he did it live for Conan.



Lyrics:


It might seem crazy wearing stripes with plaid
I Instagram every meal I’ve had
All my used liquor bottles are on display
We can go to see a show but I’ll make you pay.


Because I’m tacky
Wear my belt with suspenders and sandals with my socks
Because I’m tacky
Got some new glitter rubs and lovely pink sequined Crocs
Because I’m tacky
Never let you forget some favor I did for you
Because I’m tacky
If you’re OK with that you might just be tacky too.


I meet some chick, ask her this or that
Like, "Are you pregnant, girl, or just really fat?"
Now I’m droppin’ names almost constantly
That’s what Kanye West keeps telling me.

Here’s why:


Because I’m tacky
Wear my Ed Hardy shirt with florescent orange pants
Because I’m tacky
Got my new résumé, it’s printed in Comic Sans
Because I’m tacky
Think it’s fun threatening waiters with a bad Yelp review
Because I’m tacky
If you think that’s just fine then you’re probably tacky too.


Bring me shame, can’t nothin’
Bring me shame, I never known why
Bring me shame, can’t nothin’
Bring me shame, I said
Bring me shame, can’t nothin’
Bring me shame, it’s pointless to try
Bring me shame, can’t nothin’
Bring me shame, I said.


Because I’m tacky
43 bumper stickers and a YOLO license plate
Because I’m tacky
Bring along my coupon book whenever I’m on a date
Because I’m tacky
Practice my twerking moves in line at the DMV
Because I’m tacky
Took the whole bowl of restaurant mints, hey, it said they’re free.


Because I’m tacky
I get drunk at the bank and take off my shirt at least
Because I’m tacky
I would live tweet a funeral, take selfies with the deceased
Because I’m tacky
If I’m bit by a zombie, probably not telling you
Because I’m tacky
If you don’t think that’s bad, guess what, then you’re tacky too.....Come on!
