I've thought for a while that a huge missed opportunity for Animaniacs was the chance to parody boy-band songs. There were so many to choose from! So this thought germinated, and the Yakstreet Boys were born! Picture Yakko and Wakko dancing and singing to this parody of "As Long As You Love Me."
P.S. I owe a debt to the Merkins on YouTube for being a big inspiration with their horror movie boy band parodies, the Slashstreet Boys. Check them out on YouTube if you haven't yet seen them!
Yakko:
Although zaniness has always been a friend of mine
They're saying our fun should be banned
People say we're crazy and we're unrefined
Our humor is what they can't stand
The kind of toons we are is still a mystery
There's no more hair on Scratchy's head
We lampoon movies, books, the news, and history
Along with our sis, you see
Chorus:
I don't care who you are
What's the pun
The sides we split
As long as it's funny
Who you are
What's the pun
Or the sides we split
As long as it's funny
Wakko:
Every little gag that we have said and punned
Has ticked off the WB (ooh, ooh-ooh)
Plotz gets Ralph to chase us and we're on the run
They can't stop the Warner three
Chorus
Yakko and Wakko:
They tried to hide us so that no one knows
But just watch our show
Every day's a new surprise
Jokes we tell and who we make fun of
We don't care as long as it's funny
Chorus
