Weird Al is just so good at this twisting of lyrics that it never fails to leave me so tickled watching him!
Here's MJ's original BEAT IT video:
Now compare it to EAT IT:

"EAT IT" Lyrics just for kicks:
How come you're always such a fussy young man?
Don't want no Captain Crunch, don't want no Raisin Bran
Well, don't you know that other kids are starving in Japan
So eat it, just eat it
Don't wanna argue, I don't wanna debate
Don't want to hear about what kind of food you hate
You won't get no dessert 'till you clean off your plate
So eat it, don't you tell me you're full
Just eat it, eat it
Get yourself an egg and beat it
Have some more chicken, have some more pie
It doesn't matter if it's broiled or fried
Just eat it, just eat it
Just eat it, just eat it
Your table manners are a cryin' shame
You're playin' with your food like it's some kind of game
Now, if you starve to death, you'll just have yourself to blame
So eat it, just eat it (burp)
You better listen, better do what you're told
You haven't even touched your tuna casserole
You better chow down or it's gonna get cold
So eat it, I don't care if you're full
Just eat it, eat it
Open up your mouth and feed it
Have some more yogurt, have some more spam
It doesn't matter if it's fresh or canned
Just eat it, eat it
Don't you make me repeat it
Have a banana, have a whole bunch
It doesn't matter what you had for lunch
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Eat it, eat it
If it's gettin' cold, reheat it
Have a big dinner, have a light snack
If you don't like it you can't send it back
Just eat it, eat it
Get yourself an egg and beat it
Have some more chicken,(woohoo) have some more pie (woohoo)
It doesn't matter if it's broiled or fried
Just eat it, eat it
Don't you make me repeat it (oh no)
Have a banana,(woohoo) have a whole bunch
It doesn't matter what you had for lunch
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it

You must have been listening to Blues (or was it Jazz or Rock N Roll?)
After learning all about jazz, the blues and rock & roll, I'd like to share with you some of my personal favourites.
I absolutely love George Michael's "Kissing A Fool". Yes I know Michael Buble has done a cover of this song and there are other great jazz crooners like Norah Jones but this song is my idea of a perfect blues/jazz piece - airy, velvety smooth and relaxing. I can almost see the stars in the night sky whenever I hear this song:
Never really got interested in blues - as the name suggests it refers to the feelings of melancholy and sadness. But for all those blues fans out there, one of the most famous of them all is B.B. King, who incidentally celebrates his 84th birthday TODAY! :) Here's to one of the greatest Blues musician of all times:
