I've always known that if I recorded an album, it would come out, and people would enjoy it! Whereas if I wrote a movie script, chances are better than even that I'd just be another guy in L.A. with a movie script in his drawer.

More quotes by Al Yankovic
I knew we were having problems when you put those piranhas in my bathtub again.
Al Yankovic
The window doesn't open, the fan is broke, and my face is turning blue. I haven't been in a crowd like this since I went to see the Who.
Al Yankovic
Every night for dinner we had a big chunk of dirt.

It's hard to force creativity and humor.
Al Yankovic
It's hard to say, I picked one of my favorite articles for the MAD vault. Which is one of the features of the Magazine so they don't have to actually pay artists or writers to come up with new stuff.

I'm still a geek on the inside, that's the important thing.

In fact, when I come up with an idea for a parody I try to resist the urge to Google the idea to see if someone has done it already because the answer is almost always, Yes, of course they have, they've thought of it!
Al Yankovic
I suppose I had my rock star fantasies while I was singing into my hairbrush in the bathroom mirror, but I never really consciously said, 'OK, this is what I'm going to do for a living and I'm going to be Weird Al.'

As a kid, I certainly never thought I would get to spend my life doing something fun.

I'm known for being an up, high-energy, and optimistic kind of guy.
Al Yankovic
That's something the kids should know about. Reading is a gateway to witchcraft and lesbianism.
Al Yankovic
I'm an ugly girl, My face makes you hurl, Sad I have it, I should bag it. Acne everywhere, Unwanted facial hair. I'm a relation to Frankenstein's creation.
Al Yankovic
I don't want to pooh-pooh modern pop. I appreciate that as well, but my personal favorite kind of music is guitar-based rock. I like grunge and garage bands and alternative music, but that's more my personal taste.
Al Yankovic
I love the way they run in fright when I turn on the kitchen light. And when I squish them on the ground, they make a pleasant crunchy sound.
Al Yankovic
Maybe I'll make a huge color tapestry from my belly button lint.
Al Yankovic
The irony is of course that my career has lasted a whole lot longer than some of the people I've parodied over the years.
Al Yankovic
I know now that everything I write, I'm going to put out, and I'll have to live with it for the rest of my life.
Al Yankovic
My process for the parodies is that I get an idea for a song and then get approval from the artist and then go in and record it and probably try to get it out as soon as possible.
Al Yankovic
I like to think that I've gotten better at what I do. I spend more time and pay more attention to detail album after album. But pretty much it's stayed the same.
