Reimagining Weird Al Yankovich as a Racially Conscious, Self-Loathing Middle Eastern Satirist

Source material:


Parody:

They tried to make me be an A-rab
I said no no no
Yes I've been black
They took my doo rag
I said no no no
Maybe if I had some time
I would change my mind
They tried to make me be an A-rab
I said no no no

I'd rather be white or gay
Than pray to Allah five times a day
I hate my race; I'm so whitebread
If I were a rab, I'd turn myself in to the Feds

If I were black I'd get more cooze
Being an Arab only gets you more babbaghanouge


Pharoahe Monch Remix:

They tried to make me be an A-rab
I said no no no
UUUH!!! PHAROAHE MONCH!!! THEY TRIED TO MAKE ME AN A-RAB! TRIED TO BUY ME SCA-RABS! GOT SO ADDICTED THEY TOOK ME TO REHAB! I TOLD THEM PUNKS TO THROW IT ON MY BAR TAB! PHAROAHE MONCH WITH A BRAND NEW SLAB OF BEEF! THAT MOROCCAN KEEF! THAT IS ARAB; WHY NOT MY TEETH! WHY NOT MY SCUBA DIVE AT THE CORAL REEF! WHY NOT MY INDIAN FRIEND RAJIV!
