Weird Al's FOIL

[skaa he/him]

So, Weird Al Yankovic has a new song out called FOIL, a parody of Lorde's Royals. Here's the music video.

 

I'm sharing this with you all here because the "tinfoil hat" concept has a special place in our Cosmere-loving hearts and the second part of Weird Al's song is all about protecting your mind with aluminum foil. I think Mr. Suit would approve.

 

(I tried replacing Weird Al's lyrics with something more Cosmere-themed, but failed. Maybe someone else wants to take that challenge.)

[Swimmingly he/him]

Here are the original lyrics, if anybody wants to try:
 

I never seem to finish all my food

I always get a doggie bag from the waiter

So I just keep what's still unchewed

And I take it home, save it for later

 

[Pre-Chorus]

But then I deal with fungal rot, bacterial formation

Microbes, enzymes, mould and oxidation

I don't care, I've got a secret trick up my sleeve

I never bother with baggies, glass jars, tupperware containers

Plastic cling wrap, really a no-brainer

I just like to keep all my flavours sealed in tight

 

[Chorus]

With aluminum foil (foil)

Never settle for less

That kind of wrap is just the best

To keep your sandwich nice and fresh

Stick it in your cooler (cooler)

Eat it when you're ready

But maybe you'll choose (you'll choose, you'll choose, you'll choose)

A refreshing herbal tea

 

(sip) Mmm, lovely!

 

[Verse 2]

Oh, by the way, I've cracked the code

I've figured out these shadow organizations

And the Illuminati know

That they're finally primed for world domination

 

[Pre-Chorus]

And soon you've got black helicopters comin' cross the border

Puppet masters for the New World Order

Be aware: there's always someone that's watching you

And still the government won't admit they faked the whole moon landing

Thought control rays, psychotronic scanning

Don't mind that, I'm protected cause I made this hat

 

[Chorus]

From aluminum foil (foil)

Wear a hat that’s foil lined

In case an alien's inclined

To probe your butt or read your mind

Looks a bit peculiar ('culiar)

Seems a little crazy

But someday I'll prove (I'll prove, I'll prove, I'll prove)

There's a big conspiracy
