If you don't love Weird Al, you ain't living life right.
Ever since I was a wee bab in the 80s, he's been entertaining me with a thousand different songs that made me laugh, even before I was old enough to understand WHY they were funny (other than his cartoonish voice). Not only that, but the quality of the musicianship has always been top notch. There are people out there who think he just sings over a karaoke track, but nope; he's got a live band of talented musicians. All from scratch!
This song in particular is just one of his latest masterpieces, which is reminiscent of something Crosby, Stills and Nash would have done a few decades ago. The irony comes in that it's a groovy "flower child" song about everything that flower children hated: big corporations. It has literally been my jam on numerous occasions, and the kind of song about which I will go "OH I GOTTA HEAR THAT ONE MORE TIME" right after it ends. Hope you guys enjoy!
