I cut my teeth playing rock songs on the accordion when I was a teenager and my friends always thought that was extremely amusing. I think that was the genesis of my polka medleys, because every rock song I played on the accordion just sounded like a polka and my friends thought it was funny.

Al Yankovic
It doesn't take a military genius to see we'll all be crispy critters after World War III.
Al Yankovic
I'm still a geek on the inside, that's the important thing.
Al Yankovic
A lot of my cartoon voices are basically just variations on my natural voice.
Al Yankovic
There's enough people that do unfunny music. I'll leave the serious stuff to Paris Hilton and Kevin Federline.
Al Yankovic
Somebody will come up to me after a show and have me sign their arm, and the next time I see them my autograph has been permanently inscribed on their arm.
Al Yankovic
As a wise man once said, “April Fools Day is for amateurs. You NEVER need an excuse to mess with people's heads.”
Al Yankovic
In a genre where most of the artists are one-hit wonders, I've been able to hang around longer than most serious acts. I pride myself in being a very talented leech.
Al Yankovic
You make me wanna staple bagels to my face, then remove them with a pitchfork.
Al Yankovic
