My copy I bought on iTunes and it is 3:31. It does fade out at the end though.
Are there multiple versions of the original and if so, what is the difference?
I couldn't tell a dirt clod from a plate of caviar.

The idea of fantasizing your lover is a midget is funny. There isn't any other name that rhymes with midget. Not a reference.
Gidget.
It could be a shout-out to R. Kelly, even though the song is an Usher parody.
SG is not the first to think this, either. I don't remember where else I saw it, but someone else said the same thing.

Yeah, and what about my other name that rhymes with midget? Huh? Give me my props, SG!

I did NOT even notice that...but you're brilliant Patti, so I can't say it surprised me...but thanks for sticking up for me...even lowly SG needs support once in a while..

And see, Ryan, I'm not the only crazy person who thinks it's a subtle nod.
Well, I noticed it the first time I listened to it, but what would the purpose of a "subtle nod" be when Al did an entire 11 minute parody of the song?

Maybe Al realized that the ridiculousness of the rhyme was too good to waste, but couldn't fit it into his parody, so it went into another song?
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.
