A/N I do not own Phineas and Ferb or "Weird Al" Yankovic or any of his songs. This is made purely for fun, if you have a sense of humor, please don't take it off.
"Candace, can I use the computer?" Phineas said to his sister who was sitting in front of the computer.
"Why?" Candace asked as she checked her myspace.
"No reason, I just want to watch some videos on youtube," Phineas responded.
"You're that bored, huh?" Candace asked.
"Yeah, Ferb's knocked out with the flu that I just got rid of and now I don't know what to do!" Phineas said.
"Mom says he'll probably be better tomorrow," Candace said.
"But what am I supposed to do until then?" Phineas asked.
Candace sighed and logged off her account on the computer. "I'll just use my laptop, message me on myspace if you need anything so you don't wake up Ferb" she said as she headed up the stairs.
"Ok!" Phineas called after her. He typed in myspace and logged into his account.
"Two friend requests, one message, and six app notifications," Phineas read to himself. He looked on his activity stream and saw one of his friends had become friends with someone named "Weird Al" Yankovic.
"'Weird Al' Yankovic, who's that?" Phineas said to himself. He clicked on the picture and it took him to his profile. "So he's the lead singer of a band? Or an artist?" Phineas wondered out loud to himself. He opened up another tab and typed in youtube. He signed into his account then typed in "Weird Al" Yankovic in the search bar. Lots of songs came up and even a link to his official youtube channel. Curiously, he clicked on very first video he saw. "White and Nerdy?" Phineas said to himself as he clicked on it. He immediately recognized the music, but he didn't remember those being the words to the song. He paused the video and went back on myspace to see Candace on. He saw the word "parody" in the description of the video.
"Candace, what's a parody?" Phineas asked Candace through instant messaging. I few seconds later, she responded.
"A parody is when you take a song and use its same tune, but you change the words. You know like the Barney songs? Those are called parodies"
Phineas thought about this for a moment. "Ok, so maybe it will help if I look up a parody of his that I know the original song," Phineas thought out loud. A loud bell sound came out from the speakers. He went back onto myspace and saw Candace had typed something else.
"By the way, why do you ask?" she said.
"I heard of this guy called 'Weird Al' Yankovic and it had the word 'parody' in the description to one of his songs on youtube," Phineas typed.
"Did you just say 'Weird Al' Yankovic?" Candace typed back.
"Yeah, do you know him?" Phineas asked.
"Phineas, he's been around for like, thirty years, of course I know him," Candace said.
"Well, is he any good?" Phineas asked.
"Well, Phineas, that all depends on who you're asking. Me, personally, I think he's a dork, but he does do some good, family-friendly songs," Candace responded.
"Do you know any of his songs?" Phineas asked.
"Yeah, some," Candace said.
"What songs do you think I would like?" Phineas asked.
"Well, in my honest opinion, I think when you get into it, you'll like all of them, but if you really want to get into it, I would go with The Happy Birthday song if I was you." Candace said.
Phineas went back to youtube and typed in "Weird Al" Yankovic the happy birthday song. By the end of the three-minute song, he was laughing hysterically at the clever lyrics and the catchy tune. He clicked on one of the suggestions that were there and listened to that one. He went on google and searched to find a list of his songs and he looked up any song that seemed interesting. He was so caught up into it, that he didn't even notice Candace get offline and come join him on the couch in the family room, he didn't notice his parents come home from their night out, he didn't notice Ferb come downstairs wanting some medicine, and most importantly, he didn't notice that is was almost three o'clock in the morning.
"Are you STILL up?" Candace typed in an instant message of myspace.
"Yeah, why?" Phineas asked.
"Aren't you a little tired?" Candace said.
"A little bit, why?" Phineas asked.
"Because it's almost 3 A.M." Candace said. Phineas looked at the bottom right hand side of the computer screen and saw that his sister was right.
"Oh, wow, I didn't notice!" Phineas said.
"What have you been doing this whole time?" Candace asked.
"I've been listening to Weird Al," Phineas said.
"Really?" Candace said.
"Yes, really," Phineas responded.
"Well, finish up whatever song you're listening to and then go to bed before you get in trouble, ok?" Candace said.
"Ok," Phineas said. He finished watching "The Weird al show theme song" and then shut down the computer. He turned out the lights and went up the stairs and into his bedroom. The lights were off and Ferb was sound asleep. He crawled into bed and tried to sleep, but the songs he listened to earlier kept sneaking up on him and getting stuck in his head. When he finally got to sleep, he dreamed about being in one of the videos.
