Trivia[]
- This is the closest thing so far to an original rap song by Weird Al, notwithstanding "Twister" (from Even Worse), a parody in the style of The Beastie Boys.
- The first thing Al complains about is how he got fat.
- In the animation, the lawyer uses Tom Morello's "Arm the Homeless" guitar with "Homeless" replaced by "Lawyers".
- The animation is made to match Rage Against the Machines' music videos.
- The end of the video shows the band driving in a car, and when seen from the front the trio looks like the Pep Boys.
- Al's license plate says I-SUE-U
- Throughout most of the video, Al is wearing a Teletubbies necktie.
- This is the first song on Straight Outta Lynwood to make fun of Gigli, with Weird Al claiming he doesn't even need a reason to sue its lead actor, Ben Affleck.
