"Most people look at me like I'm all covered with ants..."

Who hasn't felt like that a time or two?

I like it! How is it possible to snork with a French accent? But Bermuda does it!

Either tighten your lips, or do it through your nose.

Ooooo! I get a kick out of this song! The first time mom and I heard it, we were cracking up. She loved the fact Al was making fun of the French! The few people at school who have the PH cd don't even know about this song!

(Is that possible?! Have they even listened to the entire cd?!) Most of them bought it just for AWBP because Al was "making fun of their favorite songs". Whatever. I still like the song!

Yep, that's me at the beginning, but not the French 'honh honh honh' laughs, that's Al.

Thanks for telling us, Jon! I should have known the French "honh honh honh" laugh was Al, since I've heard him do that laugh before, on the Weird Al Show! So, I can now say, I was wrong, and everyone else was right.

hehe, no, really, I'm glad you cleared that up!

Gee, Jon. Since you're answering questions... Are the tool sounds on Hardware Store real tool sounds or computerized somehow? Are you the one playing them?

The Laugh at the beginning of the song is probably some laugh from a joke. I dunno.

moap, the laugh at the beginning is supposed to be there. But, someone could have told Jon a joke to get him to laugh, I guess. I'm glad he cleared up the whole two laughs, and who did them question, even if I was wrong! hehe!

At the end of Albuquerque, Jim is laughing.

Coincidence? I think not...

Interesting theory, modular, but Al said Jim was laughing because of the chord he had to play at the end of the song. I thought that was pretty funny!
