Al sings theme song to "Squidbillies" on Adult Swim

Post by Elvis »

Looks like Al will be covering the theme song to "Squidbillies" on Adult Swim some time this season. (source)
This season will also feature a handful of artists covering the show's theme song including Steve Earle, Ty Segall, Against Me!, Bob Mould, Stephen Malkmus, Camper Van Beethoven, Elizabeth Cook, and "Weird Al" Yankovic.
Could this be the unknown Track 22?

All signs point to this being Track 22:
  • -Not an Al Song
    -Not the Band
    -Recorded, but yet to be released
    -Time frame seems to line up

I assume this happened from the fake Al appearance and following talks.

No - we wanted to use Weird Al! We were shot down by his reps!

@alyankovic , you should totally write a parody of our theme song for an episode, right @DaveWillis2? #squidbillies

So, guys, what do you think of the Squidbillies Theme Song cover by Al?
First of all, I'm really happy he's done it polka style :accordion: , and also, I was really concerned about the "sons of b*****" lyrics, because, you know... Al does not use such language. But he found a nice solution! :D
