"Weird Al" Yankovic
Alfred Matthew "Weird Al" Yankovic (/ˈjæŋkəvɪk/ YANG-kə-vik; born October 23, 1959) is an American singer, songwriter, parodist, record producer, satirist, actor, music video director, film producer, and author. He is known for his humorous songs that make light of popular culture and often parody specific songs by contemporary musical acts, original songs that are style pastiches of the work of other acts, and polka medleys of several popular songs, featuring his favored instrument, the accordion.
Since his first-aired comedy song in 1976, he has sold more than 12 million albums (as of 2007), recorded more than 150 parody and original songs, and has performed more than 1,000 live shows. His works have earned him four Grammy Awards and a further 11 nominations, four gold records, and six platinum records in the United States. Weird Al's first top ten Billboard album (Straight Outta Lynwood) and single ("White & Nerdy") were both released in 2006, nearly three decades into his career. His latest album, Mandatory Fun (2014), became his first number-one album during its debut week.

by Raul Seixas
Ouro De Tolo
by: Raul SeixasEu devia estar contente
Porque eu tenho um emprego
Sou o dito cidadão respeitável
E ganho quatro mil cruzeiros por mês
Eu devia agradecer ao Senhor
Por ter tido sucesso na vida como artista
Eu devia estar feliz porque
Consegui comprar um Corcel 73
Eu devia estar alegre e satisfeito
Por morar em Ipanema
Depois de ter passado fome por dois anos
Aqui na Cidade Maravilhosa
Eu devia estar sorrindo e orgulhoso
Por ter finalmente vencido na vida
Mas eu acho isto uma grande piada
E um tanto quanto perigosa
Eu devia estar contente
Por ter conseguido tudo que eu quis
Mas confesso abestalhado
Que eu estou decepcionado
Porque não foi fácil conseguir
E agora eu me pergunto: E daí?
E tenho uma porção de coisas grandes
Prá conquistar, eu não posso ficar aí parado
Eu devia estar feliz pelo Senhor
Ter me concedido o domingo
Prá ir com a família ao jardim zoológico
Dar pipoca aos macacos
Ah, mas que sujeito chato sou eu
Que não acha nada engraçado
Macaco, praia, carro, jornal, tobogã
Eu acho tudo isso um saco
É você olhar no espelho
Se sentir um grandessíssimo idiota
Saber que é humano, ridículo
Limitado, e que só usa dez por cento de sua cabeça-animal
E você ainda acredita que é um doutor
Padre ou policial
E que está contribuindo com sua parte
Para o nosso belo quadro social
Eu é que não me sento
No trono de um apartamento
Com a boca escancarada
Cheia de dentes, esperando a morte chegar
Porque longe das cercas embandeiradas
que separam quintais
No cume calmo do meu olho que vê
Assenta a sombra sonora
Dum disco voador
