First Television Appearance by "Weird Al" Yankovic

Back


Here's a clip from "The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder" in 1981. "Weird Al" performs "Another One Rides the Bus", a parody of Queen's hit, "Another One Bites the Dust". Oh, just to let you guys know, the kind of box the drummer is banging on is really Al's accordion case!

Very Rare Footage!

Please comment. Enjoy!

I have a studio version of this track and funny thing, Al sounds more phoned in on that one compared to this live performance

Well I should've got off a couple miles ago
But I couldn't get to the door There isn't any room for me to breathe And now we're gonna pick up more yeaaah (Chorus)

There's a suitcase poking me in the ribs There's an elbow in my ear There's a smelly old bum standing next to me Hasn't showered in a year, I think I'm missing a contact lens I think my wallet's gone And I think this bus is stopping again To let a couple more freaks get on look out (Chorus)(cool sound effects)The window doesn't open and the fan is broke And my face is turning blue (Yeah)I haven't been in a crowd like this Since I went to see the Who

Riding in the bus down the boulevard And the place was pretty packed (Yeah!) Couldn't find a seat so I had to stand With the perverts in the back It was smelling like a locker room
There was junk all over the floor We're already packed in like sardines But we're stopping to pick up more, look out
(Chorus) Another one rides the bus (4) Another comes on and another comes on, Another one rides the bus Hey, who's gonna sit by you, Another one rides the bus

This closely sounds like the studio version of this song
