“Eat It” by "Weird Al" Yankovic - NOW IN 4K
Follow "Weird Al" Yankovic on Spotify: http://smarturl.it/WeirdAlSpotify
In the new biopic WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story, there’s a scene where we see a clip of the “Eat It” video being played on a TV screen - except it’s actually a “deep fake,” with Al’s face replaced with Daniel Racliffe's (Dan, of course, plays Al in the movie). In order to create that particular scene, the producers had to track down source material that was considerably better quality than the existing standard-definition version. So Yankovic went into his personal video vault and had all the original 16mm film that was shot for the video in 1983 lovingly transferred to 4K. Then, while traveling the country on his 2022 tour, he painstakingly re-edited the video on his laptop, matching the original video frame for frame. The resulting video is not without scratches and artifacts (even in a temperature-controlled storage unit, film will start to degrade after a few decades) but it is exponentially better quality than any version that has ever existed before.
“Eat It” is one of 46 tracks on the just-released WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story - Original Soundtrack album - you can stream, download or pre-order here: weirdalyankovic.lnk.to/WeirdTAYSYD
WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story is now streaming exclusively on The Roku Channel! Stream free on a Roku device, the Roku mobile app, therokuchannel.com, Samsung Smart TV & FireTV.
Lyrics:
How come you're always such a fussy young man?
Don't want no Captain Crunch, don't want no Raisin Bran
Well, don't you know that other kids are starving in Japan?
So eat it, just eat it
Don't wanna argue, I don't wanna debate
Don't wanna hear about what kind of food you hate
You won't get no dessert 'till you clean off your plate
So eat it
Don't you tell me you're full
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Get yourself an egg and beat it
Have some more chicken, have some more pie
It doesn't matter if it's broiled or fried
Just eat it, eat it, just eat it, eat it
Just eat it, eat it, just eat it, eat it, ooh
Your table manners are a cryin' shame
You're playin' with your food, this ain't some kind of game
Now, if you starve to death, you'll just have yourself to blame
So eat it, just eat it
You better listen, better do what you're told
You haven't even touched your tuna casserole
You better chow down or it's gonna get cold
So eat it
I don't care if you're full
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Open up your mouth and feed it
Have some more yogurt, have some more Spam
It doesn't matter if it's fresh or canned
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Don't you make me repeat it
Have a banana, have a whole bunch
It doesn't matter what you had for lunch
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
If it's gettin' cold, reheat it
Have a big dinner, have a light snack
If you don't like it, you can't send it back
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Get yourself an egg and beat it
(Oh Lord)
Have some more chicken, have some more pie
It doesn't matter if it's broiled or fried
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Don't you make me repeat it
(Oh no)
Have a banana, have a whole bunch
It doesn't matter what you had for lunch
