Like the Noob I am, I posted in the VCR alerts rather than here.
Thx CatraDhtem for bringing this news to the attention of this thread.

Another possible song title: "Weasel Stomping Day".
Another possible video, too.

Set to air Sunday night, July 9, 11:30pm, cartoon network.

Probably going to be a short song, given Robot Chicken's
"short attention span" style.

(Tiger Rag)
Stomp That Weasel!
Stomp That Weasel!

Repeat until everyone around you gets sick of it!

Is this an Al song? If so, could you site your sources?

Well I'll be darned. So, maybe we'll get to hear a song before the album releases, if in fact the album is delayed later than July.

Interesting. I wonder if it's actually a song off the new album or something more along the lines of what he did with "Electric Shaver" for "Sabrina, The Animated Series." Nice find though!

And great find Jake!! Wow, multiple animated videos. Awesome!! :D

Well, the way it's worded - "Weird Al Yankovic's 'Weasel Stomping Day" - it sounds like it's from the new album.

Perhaps this really is an Al song afterall!

Ah, thanks.

ETA: Is it possible that what's gonna be on Cartoon Network is the music video for "Weasel Stomping Day"?

It seems very possible, that is of course if that is in fact a real Al song. It was said recently that Al was looking to get a variety of top animators to work on videos for the album, and "Robot Chicken" would probably fit right in with such a plan. After all, the opening sequence to TWAS utilized cel animation, computer animation, and claymation, so it seems as if Al is clearly a fan of the different techniques of the medium.
