Accordion Shaped Pool

about

My tribute song to the great Frank Yankovic

lyrics

He’s got the moves like Jagger Jackson
The ladies say, “He can ring my bell.”
He’s as funny as Tiffany Haddish
He can rhyme like Lin Manuel

Can one person have all that Talent?
He wears platinum pinky rings
I know it ‘cause I read the tabloids
He’s America’s polka king

What I really want to know
Really, really want to know
Does Frankie have an accordion shaped pool?
What I really want to know
Really, really want to know
Does Frankie have an accordion shaped pool?
Does Frank baby have an accordion shaped pool?

I walk past his house imagining
Mahogany marble and crystal glasses
The guard outside said, “Yes, but also: maids and servants with nice asses!”

Rembrandt, Picasso, Van Gogh, Davinci’s
Hanging on the walls
Presidents, tycoons, moguls and queens
Making telephone calls

He strolls about his house in a bathrobe smoking a pipe
Was paid ten million dollars to play a show on Skype
His TV show had a twelve year run
He won twelve Emmy’s
With more residuals than the cast of Friends
He doesn’t have a single enemy

What I really want to know
Really, really want to know
Does Frankie have an accordion shaped pool?
What I really want to know
Really, really want to know
Does Frankie have an accordion shaped pool?
Does Frank baby have an accordion shaped pool?

One day he woke up and said out loud
“I’d better have a plan B.”
He started a mobile pet grooming service
With his charming ninth wife, Betty

Now I’m an aspiring entertainer
My gimmick: I wear a fez
I’m very talented, I just need a break
That’s what my mommy says

Now, Frankie is my hero, I just love him!
Like eight of his ex wives
He bought them all gorgeous homes
On the islands of Maldives

He was having a drink with Marilyn Monroe
Enjoying music in a bar
The piano player was Billy Joel
Frankie was a flamethrower in the war

What I really want to know
Really, really want to know
Does Frankie have an accordion shaped pool?
What I really want to know
Really, really want to know
Does Frankie have an accordion shaped pool?
Does Frank baby have an accordion shaped pool?

He rides with James Cordon singing carpool karaoke
He’s the only human who can talk to Elvis Presley
Forty thoroughbred racing horses living in his stalls
A green-haired, juggling unicyclist cruising down his halls

I tried climbing up his walls
Then he installed a mote
Now his kids drive round and round
In cute little motorboats

Now, Frankie’s very thin, yet eats like a horse
His private chef makes triple my pay
Emu hot dogs on amaranth buns
He eats thirty five every single day

I flew my drone over his house
I wanna see what’s back there!
Before security shot it out of the sky
I saw zebra’s and black bears

I tried paying the National Enquirer
To find out if it’s really true
Even they could not determine
If he has that famous pool

What I really want to know
Really, really want to know
Does Frankie have an accordion shaped pool?
What I really want to know
Really, really want to know
Does Frankie have an accordion shaped pool?
Does Frank baby have an accordion shaped pool?

He built a rocket right in his back yard
He’s going to space with his mom
It has an electric motor from Tesla
I read it all on Stars dot com
