the comedy of the lyrics is what made it palatable to me. I did not "get" serious music at all, like I had nothing to relate to it as a 10-year-old. But everyone can relate to songs about tv and food. Before Weird Al my tastes were like the Lion King soundtrack and a few pop albums from the 90s.
There are a lot of jokes I didn't get as a kid which I understand now though, which is funny. Now listening to Dare to Be Stupid
