Biografía:
Alfred Matthew Yankovic (Downey, EE.UU., 23-10-1959) es el músico, compositor y comediante norteamericano que se ha destacado, principalmente, por sus logradas parodias hacia distintos hits del cancionero del rock and roll mundial y sus intérpretes (por caso Smells like nirvana).
Acordionista, tecladista y vocalista, Wired Al se volcó al escenario artístico tras advertir que "lo suyo" no tenía nada que ver con el título de arquitecto que había obtenido por la Universidad Politécnica estatal de California San Luis Obispo.

Standard Tuning EADGBe
A more simplified version of an extremely complicated song (no reference intended)
Intro: D C G A A7 A7
D G A D G A Bm
I was driving on the freeway in the fast lane with a rabid wolverine in my underwear
E A G D
when suddenly a guy behind me in the back seat popped right up and cupped his hands across my eyes
D G A D G A
I guessed "Is it Uncle Frank or Cousin Louie? is it Bob or Joe or Walter?
Bm E
Could it be Bill or Jim or Ed or Bernie or Steve?"
A A7 Bm
I probably would have kept on guessing but about that time we crashed into the truck
E7 A D Em G
And as I'm laying bleeding there on the asphalt finally I recognize the face of my hibachi dealer
A A7
who takes off his prosthetic lips and tells me
Chorus 1:
D G A D G A Bm
Everything you know is wrong! Black is white, up is down and short is long
E A A7
And everything you thought was just so important doesn't matter
D G A D C# F#m Bm
Everything you know is wrong! Just forget the words and sing along
E G A F G
All you need to understand is, everything you know is wrong
Verse 2:
D G A D G A Bm
I was walkin' to the kitchen for some Golden Grahams when I accidentally stepped into an alternate dimension
E A G D
and soon I was abducted by some aliens from space who kinda looked like Jamie Farr
D G A D G A
They sucked out my internal organs and they took some polaroids and said I was a darn good sport
Bm E A A7 Bm
As a way of saying thank you they offered to transport me back to any point in history that I would care to go
E7 A D Em G
And so I had them send me back to last Thursday night so I could pay my phone bill on time
A A7
Just then the floating disembodied head of Colonel Sanders started yelling
Chorus 2:
D G A D G A Bm
Everything you know is wrong! Black is white, up is down and short is long
E A A7
And everything you thought was just so important doesn't matter
D G A D C# F#m Bm
Everything you know is wrong! Just forget the words and sing along
E G A D
All you need to understand is, everything you know is wrong

Verse 3:
D G A D G A Bm
I was just about to mail a letter to my evil twin when I got a nasty papercut
E A G D
And well, to make a long story short it got infected and I died
D G A D G A
So now I'm up in heaven with St. Peter by the pearly gates and it's obvious he doesn't like the
Bm E A A7 Bm
Nehru jacket that I'm wearing, he tells me that they've got a dress code, well
E7 A D Em G
He lets me into heaven anyway but I get the room next to the noisy ice machine for all eternity
A A7
And every day he runs by screaming
Chorus 3:
D G A D G A Bm
Everything you know is wrong! Black is white, up is down and short is long, and
E A A7
Everything ya used to think was so important doesnt really matter anymore because the simple fact remains that
D G A D C# F#m Bm
Everything you know is wrong! Just forget the words and sing along
E G A Bm C#m G A D
All you need to understand is, everything you know is wroooooooooooooooong, everything you know is wrong!
