Does the song go "This song's just six words long" (Six words) as the title suggests
or "This song is just six words long" (Seven words) which, in my opinion, is more funny. Saying the seven word sentence about saying only six words is Al's kind of humor. And even look where he put the emphysis on the sylibals. I think it would be better if it were "This song is just six words long". What do you think?

Even though it sounds more like "This song is just six words long" I think it's meant to be "this song's..." But anyway, the song is A LOT more than 6 words long anyway, so either way the title doesn't really make sense. :P But I still love the song!

I think Al even addressed this in Ask Al. He said it was meant to be "This Song's Just Six Words Long". I love it, too!

:biggrin:

4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

...But you've gotta admit, it would be funnier if it was "This song is just six words long".

Whatever. I just really dig that song. Perhaps my fave parody on Even Worse :biggrin:
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?

Yeah, I didn't even know it was a parody until a few months ago :blush:
