Can someone tell me what this is a style parody of?
Also this song is just great, one of the funniest songs on the album.

I'm not even half done yet, but this is very humerous, love it already.

- This song involves so many celebrities that it comes across like another "Couch Potato" to me topical humor-wise. I know I'm probably in the minority, but not a fan of this one. I usually love Track 2.

LYRICS
- Spoiler:
- One time I was in the checkout line behind Steven Seagal
Once I'm pretty sure Mr. Jonah Hill was in the very next bathroom stall
My best friend's brother, well he as an extra in Wayne's World 2
My neighbour's baby sitter dated three of the guys in Motley Crue
I swear Jack Nicholson looked right at me at a Laker's game
I got a lame, lame claim to fame (Ow-wee)
Check it out
I bought a second hand toaster from a guy who says he knows Brad Pitt
I got me an email from the prince of Nigeria, well he sure sounded legit
My sister used to take piano lessons from the second cousin of Ralph Nader
Last year I threw up in an elevator next to Christian Slater
Well guess what, my birthday and Kim Kardashian's are exactly the same
I got a lame, lame claim to fame
A really lame, lame claim to fame
Once at a party, my dentist accidentally sneezed on Russell Crowe
I posted first in the comments on a YouTube video
I tried to sit by Steve Buscemi but he told me this seat's taken
I know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy who know a guy who knows a guy who know Kevin Bacon
(Ow-wee)
I had a car that used to belong to Cuba Gooding Jr.'s uncle
A friend of mine in high school had jury duty with Art Garfunkel
One time I was staying in the same hotel as Zooey Deschanel
I used the same napkin dispenser as Steve Carell at a Taco Bell
I don't mean to brag but Paul Giamatti's plumber knows me by name
I got a lame, lame claim to fame
A really lame, lame claim to fame
That's right, I'm talking lame, lame claim to fame
A really really really lame, lame claim to fame
Ow, let's get lame boys

- Unfortunately Al and Kim Kardashian do not have the same birthday. 2 days off.
This song is easily in my top 5 favorites on the album. Not sure why, maybe it's the style, but I really like it.

Another fantastic track. Laughed at every single line.
One really funny thing this song reminded me of: At the signing for Straight Outta Lynwood back in 2006, my friend Charlie, my dad, and I found ourselves in line a few spaces back from a guy who pretty much was the character Al was playing in this song. Every time someone would say something cool or interesting that either they or a friend or relative had done, he had to top it in some way, that often was an extraneous connection, like the ones Al lists in this song.

I absolutely love this! Very deserving of the track 2 spot, and up there with the likes of EYKIW, Pancreas, MBILWEV, and CNR. This song might even make me buy an album by SCOTS.
- Spoiler:
- And I'm very glad that our guesses about YouTube celebs and Duck Dynasty were wrong. Al's idea here is so much better than those would have been.
