"Weird Al" Yankovic: Off The Deep End - When I Was Your Age

[djvoldemort1]

1 person thinks nothings good enough

[metaguitar234]

Good song listened to it alot.

[TheeKingOsiris]

Let me tell you sonny... let me tell you straight

You kids today ain't never had it tough

Always had everything handed to you on a silver plate

You lazy brats think nothing's good enough

[kellybryan08]

1 person must have been the 74th person sleeping outside the cardboard box.

[mrpankau]

1 person is a whiny, little snot!

[djvoldemort1]

1 person walked to school in the snow butt naked!

[HiggDogg420]

What song is this a parody of ?

[brovie96]

@HiggDogg420 It's not. It's one of the rare "Weird Al" originals.

[beerdogfood]

@HiggDogg420 I think It's a parody of the style of Don Henley's Dirty Laundry

[mrpankau]

1 person had a big ol' chunk o' dirt for dinner last night :(

[dogeymon83]

This song is eerily relevant to today's occupy wall street protesters. Those lazy brats think nothing's good enough either. I hope limbaugh takes my request to play it on the air.  Hahaha

[fightforyourrights9]

@dogeymon83

Yeah, cause selling toxic mortgage backed securities with fraudulent AAA ratings and gambling with people's pensions and retirement plans to make money isn't lazy... turn off Rush Limbaugh and get a clue.

[musicnotes2100]

Best Artist. Best Music. Best Song 

[BOBILLBAJO]

I got this album for my 9th birthday in 92, because for some reason my mother thought a naked man in a swimming pool was less disturbing than a naked baby.

[MisterMoccasin]

This reminds me a lot of Monty Python's sketch Four Yorkshiremen. HAHA they're both so hilarious!

[Gobtik]

@MisterMoccasin Just a bit of trivia but Python didn't create the sketch, it was done first by Tim Brooke-Taylor, John Cleese, Graham Chapman, and Marty Feldman on At Last The 1948 Show - you can see it here: youtube.com/watch?v=-eDaSvRO9x­A

[jessikinz99]

0:15 to 0:34 Awsome guitar!!!!!!!!!! :)

[ThePopcornFairy]

This song has the most amazing guitar track! XD *replays*

[29Randy29]

i appreciate 69 likes

[brebregans]

When I was your age, I had to walk 20 miles to school, in the snow, uphill, against the wind, both ways, and that was on a good day

[mrshixaction]

literally haven't heard this song in over 10 years and still was able to sing along to it.

[imperfectmaster]

Lucky! all I got for Christmas was a single Rock, and he got a whole freaking Bag full of 'em?

[mastodonseven]

@imperfectmaster lol sweet

[bigpopparamma]

I've known some old people exaggerated their stories a lot. Especially about how they went to school.

[thepatrick0603]

U think that's bad? I'll tell u, WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE!!!

[Hectorflix]

So if you ever want to write an essay on Soviet-era civilian life in Uzbekistan, you can just go and interview Weird Al.

[Taud]

than he'd get too tired and he'd make us whoop ourselves, cut me into pieces and played Frisbee with my brains.... k the song just gets effing ridiculous there lmao

[afrobeatle10]

"We were hungry and broke and miserable and we liked it fine that way!"

[captaindrywall]

This is for Flea... and all the punks that think a 22hr work day is to much.

[rickface13]

when i was your age .. we washed ourselves with dirt ...and a rock between the eyes never really hurt......when i was your age..lol

[DakeyrastheSlayer]

one of the best weird al originals XD

[afrobeatle10]

@DakeyrastheSlayer no doubt man. haha it cracks me up every time I hear it. Weird Al's music pretty much summed up my childhood.

[eboo777]

this song and the entire album was my life in elementary school.

[wackyryanandfriends]

im totalay going to play this song when my kids ask for stuff!!!!

[Kittyslasher69]

@wackyryanandfriends That may prove a point, but many of the described scenarios in this song are exaggerations.

[ElRancholo2]

@Kittyslasher69 no shit?

[romans52345]

@Kittyslasher69 I think the whole point of the song was to make fun of old people who make exaggerations about how they grew up but Al takes it to a whole new level.....

[equinoxialparadox]

Yep this is definitely i0nwrite

[Rectanglectum]

Thanks for posting!!!!!

[calbretco95765]

This is a parody. Don Henley, building the perfect beast...

[OhRyan83]

Classic

[StayUgly]

"Send over some peasants to eat the grass!"

[thereddog223]

this isnt wow.

[bigfootskitty]

didn't have no water bed, had to sleep on broken glass..... didn't have no toilet paper, 'used A cob to wipe our a**!

[wjye]

Whats the real version of this song?

[FightTheCorporations]

I think this is a totallly original Weird Al song!

[JamieDKelly]

It's not a parody. It's an original.

[missXmikey]

XD Man I love this song!

[kimmie508]

OK, so how bad IS it that I've been listening to this song since it came out and only just realized that it's the same background/tune as Dirty Laundry... doh!

[crallspace]

I loved this album. And I like seeing him on Tim and Eric.

[shaneinkster]

1992

[shaneinkster]

Weird Al's metal song

[StayUgly]

@shaneinkster You mean Young, dumb and ugly?

[shaneinkster]

@StayUgly your mum

[adg1017]

one of the best ever WAY songs... also one of the very first solos i learned on the guitar as a kid!

[weirdalfan1980]

I miss the old al, where he did alot of good rock songs, nowadays its rap, even though he can "spit" he rocks better.

[Relikorfitness]

I definitely hear ya on that, whether it be 1950's R&R or grunge, still thoroughly entertaining.

[Enzo000000000]

Today, he released an alternative-rock song called Skipper Dan! It's awsome!

[gitrdun01dasouthrulz]

remember his parodies are fueled by whats popular today, and the rap and hip hop genre are more popular nowadays

[Kabunglester12]

@gitrdun01dasouthrulz yes, and that absolutely sucks because rap and hip hop suck.

[Kittyslasher69]

@gitrdun01dasouthrulz what a shame.

[Kittyslasher69]

@gitrdun01dasouthrulz creepy

[GayNiggerSex]

@gitrdun01dasouthrulz If we could find some way to decrease the popularity of rap, the world would have more respectful people!

[Luigi84289]

@gitrdun01dasouthrulz Which is sad because that crap isn't music. It's just words with a beat.

[farsk1]
