Weird Al gets ‘Handy’ in the latest video from ‘Mandatory Fun’

Weird Al Handy

Look, when you release eight songs in eight days, there’s a pretty good chance not everyone is going to like every single one of them. And while the first three songs from Weird Al Yankovic’s new album Mandatory Fun were all pretty damn solid, we’re guessing that the fourth release “Handy” will be viewed by future critics as the weak-point of the album.

The song, which takes on Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy” is pretty much an ode to DIY skills. No biting social commentary, no pot shots at high profile figures, none of the things define Yankovic’s greatest pieces of work.

Don’t believe us? Here’s a sample of the lyrics:

“Now let me glue that, glue that and screw that, screw that
Any random chore you got, well I can do that, do that
Or maybe I’ll just rewire your house for fun
I got 99 problems but a switch ain’t one.”
