One of his best songs EVER. I remember I was in the 5th grade the first time I heard it, and I laughed so hard. Now that I'm an adult, if I go out on a blind date and it is rude, or the conversation dies down I start singing this out of the blue. It ALWAYS gets a reaction. Not always a BAD reaction either LOL!!! Thank you Weird Al for getting me laid more times then I can count!
If I am not mistaken, this was the very first song that Weird Al presented on the Dr. Demento Show .. way back in '78. Since then, he has become an icon of parody and musical humor. Thank you for sharing this!
This song inspired my seven-year-old self to record a skit in which I was in a hospital and someone rolled by in an iron lung. Thank you, Al, for helping to ensure that I was a strange child.
This album is truely the best of them all! I remember back in the 80's, my friends and I would party and play this over and over. Must have worn out a half dozen of the cassettes. The great classics never die! Thanks for posting the songs!!
It would be really funny to hear this song backwards. Is there any way that can be done? I'd like to see if there's a message if played backwards. It would also be hilarious to her Mr Frump's breathing parts and death backwards. If there is a backwards version, please tell me. Just curious of how it would sound backwards.
Poor Mr. Frump. I'd hate to be like him, living in an Iron lung, not being able to move around. Too bad that there was never an official music video that weird al made himself. I could picture Mr. Frump dying. This is also a sad song.
@BeebeCh1972 It's from his very first album self titled "Weird Al" Yankovic. I had it on cassette and CD. I had every single one at one time but all of them got stolen unfortunately. It totally sucked!
It was... beautiful?

@Aliceindeath1 I'm pretty sure he makes the lung noise by messing with the valves on his accordion. In any case, it's genius.

It's okay, but I never understood this song. Just about a guy in an iron lung who dies. Don't get it.

@2010hawkfan the point is that it's really upbeat, despite the grim subject.
